Russia is shifting toward reusable drones as supply issues and battlefield demands mount. Platforms like the Night Witch and Bulldog-13 now carry multiple munitions, resist jamming, and return for reuse, saving costly tech. Interceptor drones are also evolving, using electric rods or even cans.

If inflation comes up at the dinner table, don’t forget to draw attention to a deeper structural driver of high prices: corporate power.
Much of the food industry is dominated by a few corporate giants with the power to keep prices high because they face little competition.

And I am also thinking about the craven politicians who decided to put them in harm's way because they choose to govern by menacing and by staging stunts.
