    I dont feel like googling this specific instance but this absolutely one design/usage type of the technology for aerial drones.

    The really cool up and coming shit is UUV though. MUCH more difficult to pull off effectively so once we get it basically to where UAVs now it is going to be like “sci-fi” level shit.

    if memory serves some of them were, but others were Iranian derived long-range UAVs with cluster munitions weapons platforms. the drone attacks were also launched in conjunction with short-range cruise missiles which likewise fly at an altitude too low to be picked up by most air defense systems (including our own Patriot system).

    Harry Dunn's parents have lost their High Court battle against the Foreign Office over whether their son's alleged killer had diplomatic immunity.
    And here I thought only Saudi Princes get this treatment.

    Saudi Crown Prince Now Owns 33% of SNK
    Saudi Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman is set to become the leading shareholder in publicly-listed South Korean software and hardware developer SNK Corporation through the Electronic Gaming Development Company (EGDC) firm held by the Mohamed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud (MiSK Foundation), according to a report published in South Korean publication Bloter. The report claims that EGDC has signed a stock transfer agreement with the studio which will see it acquire 33% of SNK’s outstanding share capital through mixture of treasury shares and a block owned by the current leading shareholder on 12th January 2021, for a sum in excess of ₩207bn (£139.9m). The suggested share purchase follows the signing of a corporate agreement between SNK and Saudi firm Manga Productions at the MiSK Global Forum event in 2017.

    The Trump administration imposed sanctions Monday on NATO ally Turkey’s main military weapons procurement agency as punishment for its purchase of a Russian-made missile defense system.

    The sanctions were mandated under a 2017 law requiring them against any entity that engages in “significant transactions” with Russian defense or intelligence sectors.

    The announcement came after Congress last week overwhelmingly passed the annual defense funding bill, which includes a provision ordering that the sanctions be imposed within 30 days. President Trump has threatened to veto the bill.

    Lawmakers of both parties had criticized the administration for delaying the sanctions following Turkey’s $2.5 billion purchase of the S-400 system in 2019, inaction that some attributed to Trump’s disinclination to offend Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

    Saudi Arabia is reopening its borders with Qatar. The island had been cut off for awhile because they pissed off the Saudis for reasons I can't remember.

    Qatar also notably uses slave labor for construction projections and I do know that was -not- the reason Saudi Arabia cut ties.
