What are Russia's gains from the Iran war? 'We are not losers; we are winners' Russia strikes Ukraine's Odesa port, kills railway worker in Zaporizhia Russian drones have attacked Ukraine's main Black Sea port in the southern city of Odesa and a railway in the region of Zaporizhia, killing a train driver, according to Ukraine's Deputy Prime Minister Oleksii Kuleba. The overnight attacks damaged the infrastructure of the Odesa port, including berths, warehouses, railway infrastructure and port operators' facilities, Kuleba said in a statement on X on Wednesday. Kuleba said this is "another proof of terrorism, Russia is at war against peaceful people, against those who were simply doing their job and keeping the country moving". Russia also launched several drones and missiles on a flight path near the disused Chornobyl nuclear plant, elevating the risk of a significant accident, according to Ukraine's top state prosecutor. This comes as Ukraine prepares to mark the 40th anniversary of the 1986 Chornobyl disaster on Sunday.

Terra Drone's Terra A1 interceptor drone has entered active combat use in Ukraine after being deployed to a military unit tasked with countering Russian uncrewed aerial systems. Japanese drone company Terra Drone said its Terra A1 interceptor -- developed with its Ukrainian partner Amazing Drones -- has moved from the lab to the front lines, entering active combat use in Ukraine against Russian-made Shahed drones. "Deployment for defense purposes has already begun with a military unit, and evaluation and feedback collection under actual operating conditions are currently under way," the Tokyo-based firm, which recently made a strategic investment in the Ukrainian startup, said in a recent statement. Terra Drone explained that this initial "real-world operational deployment" -- carried out via its local partner -- will follow a phased rollout, where new equipment is first issued to a single unit and then expanded to further deployments depending on evaluations from the field. In a time of both misinformation and too much information, quality journalism is more crucial than ever.

The U.S. military is launching a new autonomous warfare command under SOUTHCOM to deploy unmanned systems across Latin America, SOUTHCOM Gen. Francis Donovan said.

A soldier carries a drone during a military parade in Washington on June 14, 2025. The Pentagon's largest-ever budget request earmarks $75 billion for drones and technologies to counter them, mainly for a massive increase for a little-known office working with U.S. commandos to test and evaluate various systems, according to defense officials. The drone-funding proposal includes $54.6 billion for the Defense Autonomous Working Group, or DAWG, from just $225.9 million this year. That would appear to be the largest single year-over-year boost of any defense program or office, meaning it's likely to draw particular congressional and public scrutiny in an already eye-catching $1.5 trillion request that's 42% larger than this year's budget. The big boost for the Pentagon's little-known drone unit comes as the U.S. and Israeli war against Iran illustrates how drones can help level the playing field against even the world's most well-funded armed forces.

'This is an apartheid regime' Israeli soldiers and settlers have killed at least 11 Palestinians across Gaza and the occupied West Bank, according to Palestinian officials and local media, in the latest bloodshed to occur during a "ceasefire" announced in October. In Gaza, at least seven Palestinians were killed in a series of Israeli attacks, including a child who died from injuries sustained days earlier, while 21 were reported on Tuesday to have been injured over a 24-hour period. Another Palestinian man was later killed on Tuesday in an Israeli drone attack near the Sheikh Nasser neighbourhood, east of Khan Younis. In northern Gaza, a Palestinian woman was killed when Israeli naval forces shelled tents sheltering displaced families northwest of Beit Lahiya. Verified video obtained by Al Jazeera showed the body of Abdullah Dawas, a child wrapped in white cloth for burial, after he succumbed to injuries 10 days after being shot in the head near al-Fakhoura clinic in northern Gaza's Jabalia refugee camp.

Get your news from a source that's not owned and controlled by oligarchs. On Sunday afternoon, Palantir, the defense-tech company that sells software to clients like ICE, the US military, and the Israeli military, decided to give us all a piece of their mind. The company's official X account published a list of excerpts from co-founder Alex Karp's 2025 book The book frames Silicon Valley's move into military technology as the righteous repayment of a "moral debt" owed to the country that built the tech billionaire class. "The engineering elite of Silicon Valley has an affirmative obligation to participate in the defense of the nation." If you read past the post and dig into the book itself, you'll find that this sentence continues: "the engineering elite must also, Karp said, participate in "the articulation of a national project--what is this country, what are our values, and for what do we stand." That is to say: Men like Karp should decide what this country is. "If a US Marine asks for a better rifle, we should build it; and the same goes for software," Palantir's Bill-Ackman-esque digression continued. It asserts that the future of American military dominance will not depend on nuclear deterrence, but on AI weaponry--possibly like the Palantir AI product that is reportedly used to help generate'kill lists' for the Israeli military in Gaza. Then, after arguing for the primacy of its own products--called " spy tech " by Palantir's critics--Karp suggests the remilitarization of the Axis Powers. "The postwar neutering of Germany and Japan must be undone," Karp's company account asserted. "The defanging of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price.
