The home of the US Air Force's nuclear bomber fleet was repeatedly invaded by a swarm of mysterious drones that could not be stopped by the military's jamming technology. Officials at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana confirmed to the Daily Mail that the base detected'multiple unauthorized drones' entering restricted airspace between March 9 and March 15. The first incident involving a single'unmanned aerial system' triggered a shelter-in-place order and terror alert amid reports from the FBI of potential drone attacks on US soil. However, an internal military briefing document has reportedly revealed that later incidents involved swarms of 12 to 15 drones entering the base's no-fly zone .

Over 200 Ukrainian military experts in Gulf region to counter Iran's drones More than 200 Ukrainian military experts are in the Gulf region and wider Middle East helping governments in their defence against Iran's drone attacks, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said. In an address to dozens of members of the United Kingdom Parliament in London on Tuesday, the Ukrainian leader said 201 Ukrainian anti-drone experts are in the region and another 34 "are ready to deploy".

We do not want this terror of the Iranian regime against its neighbours to succeed," he said.

Zelensky to visit Starmer to sign new Ukraine-UK defence pact

BBC News

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to visit Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer in the UK on Tuesday to agree a new defence partnership aimed at tackling cheap attack drones. Downing Street said the deal would bring together Ukrainian expertise and the UK's industrial base to manufacture and supply drones and other capabilities. The two leaders are also expected to discuss further support Ukraine against Russia's full-scale invasion, now in its fourth year. Their meeting comes as the US-Israeli war with Iran enters a third week, during which US President Donald Trump has criticised the UK and other countries over the extent of their response to the conflict. Under the partnership between the UK and Ukraine, closer co-operation in the defence industries will also be sought with third countries as part of efforts to bolster international security.


Drone strike disrupts Dubai flights as Iran continues Gulf attacks

Al Jazeera

Could Iran be using China's BeiDou system? The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced diversion of some flights from the Dubai international airport, one of the world's busiest, after a drone attack sparked a fire near the facility, as Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and Saudi Arabia also reported intercepting drones and missiles. The Dubai Media Office on Monday said civil defence teams had "successfully contained the fire resulting from impact to one of the fuel tanks in the vicinity" of the airport, noting that no injuries had been reported so far. The Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, meanwhile, said it was temporarily suspending flights at the airport "as a precautionary measure to ensure the safety of all passengers and staff". It did not say when they expected flights to resume.


Ukraine eyes money and tech in return for Middle East drone support

Al Jazeera

Could Iran be using China's BeiDou system? Ukraine wants money and technology as payback after sending specialists to the Middle East to help down Iranian drones during the ongoing Israel-United States war with Iran . President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told reporters on Sunday that three teams were sent to the region to undertake expert assessments and demonstrate how drone defences work as countries in the Middle East continue to be targeted by Iran over hosting US military bases. We are not at war with Iran," Zelenskyy said. Earlier this week, Ukraine's leader announced military teams were sent to Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and a US military base in Jordan. But he explained that more long-term drone deals could be negotiated with Gulf countries, and what Kyiv gets in return for its assistance still needs to be established. "For us today, both the technology and the funding are important," Zelenskyy said. Throughout the four-year Russia-Ukraine war, Moscow has widely used Iranian Shahed-136 "suicide" drones, giving Kyiv expertise in knowing how to down the unmanned aerial vehicles through cheap drone interceptors, electronic jamming tools, and anti-aircraft weaponry. However, US President Donald Trump has said he does not need Ukraine's help in taking down Iranian drones attacking American targets. Zelenskyy said he doesn't know why Washington hasn't signed a drone agreement with Kyiv, which it has pushed for months. "I wanted to sign a deal worth about $35bn-50bn," he said. Still, as the Russia-Ukraine conflict continues with no end in sight, Zelenskyy raised concerns that the ongoing war in the Middle East will impact Kyiv's supplies of air defence missiles. "We would very much not like the United States to step away from the issue of Ukraine because of the Middle East," he told reporters. But as interest has grown for Ukrainian drone interceptors in light of the war, Zelenskyy said Kyiv's rules to buy the drones must be tightened, with foreign countries and firms being unable to bypass the government and talk directly to manufacturers. "Unfortunately, representatives of certain governments or companies want to bypass the Ukrainian state to purchase specific equipment," Zelensky told reporters. "Even in some free countries, we do not initially receive contracts from the private sector.

Brett Velicovich, a former US Army intelligence and special operations soldier who spent years using drones to hunt ISIS leaders before founding drone company PowerUs, said the threat comes from a new type of warfare that the US is still struggling to defend against. 'These new asymmetric threats, where you've got low-cost, cheap, small drones, in some cases, that are able to be sent in massive waves, don't have the same signature of an intercontinental ballistic missile,' Velicovich explained.
