In the current media landscape, it's a wonder it even got made. In a world where hallowed news organizations transform into conservative mouthpieces and milquetoast late-night jokes are grounds for suspension, satirical headlines from the Onion can feel closer to real life than parody. Now the site is taking on one of the most taboo subjects of all--disgraced sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein--in mockumentary form. It launches in theaters in New York City, Minneapolis, Los Angeles, and San Francisco for one day only on October 2; after that it will be available online. You can watch the trailer right here.

Poland's Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz speaks after signing a contract for the delivery of mobile communication centers in Zegrze, Poland, on Wednesday. Poland has become the biggest buyer of drones from Taiwan as the Eastern European country, on Russia's doorstep, bolsters its defense capabilities and seeks to reduce its reliance on Chinese parts. Poland is now absorbing almost 60% of Taiwan's drone exports, which expanded this year to about $32 million through August, from almost nothing in the previous years. The next-largest importer of Taiwan's drones is the U.S., to which Taiwan sold roughly $7 million worth in the same period. Taiwanese drone maker Ahamani said Polish demand was so great it was planning to open a factory there, and that other foreign companies, including a large South Korean drone company, had approached it about buying non-Chinese motors.

Can Israel survive economic isolation? Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has said his country's navy will join Italy in sending warships to protect the Global Sumud Flotilla, which has come under drone attack in international waters en route to deliver aid to Gaza.

"Tomorrow we will dispatch a naval vessel from Cartagena with all necessary resources in case it is necessary to assist the flotilla and carry out a rescue operation." On Wednesday night, activists described a wave of attacks by Israeli drones and other aircraft which targeted vessels in the small fleet in what flotilla organisers described as "an alarmingly dangerous escalation".
