    Putin’s drones are learning how to break Ukraine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    A military tech adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky raised eyebrows Wednesday when he claimed to have made an unsettling discovery among the wreckage of Russia’s latest drone barrage. Serhiy “Flash” Beskrestnov, appointed by Zelensky in July, said one of Moscow’s drones was carrying what appeared to be a specially designed charge to scythe through thick metal structures such as reinforced pylons, bridges and other key infrastructure. “I believe the enemy plans to attack critical hi

    Why Pete Hegseth needs wimps and weirdos (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Pete Hegseth wants a military with no wimps, no weirdos and no radicals. He also wants one built around autonomous weapons, superintelligence, robotics and technologies that barely exist yet. If he really pursues the former, he’ll squander the latter. In his State of the Force address Wednesday, Hegseth revealed a grab bag of plans to prepare America for a different kind of war.

    Wednesday will witness the last American troops withdraw from Iraq, officially ending a two-decade-long military presence that began with an invasion in 2003 and resumed again in 2014 when U.S. forces returned to aid Baghdad in its fight against the Islamic State group. Taken together with the somewhat abrupt pullout from Afghanistan five years ago, this closes a messy and complicated chapter in American history.

    Putin’s kitchen sink strategy in Ukraine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Vladimir Putin spent his Monday making Russia better equipped to wage war, and harder to audit while it does so. With two signatures, he expanded the size of Russia’s armed forces for the fourth time this year, then pulled the curtain over the evidence that exposes the damage Ukraine is inflicting across the Russian border. Three days earlier, Russia's election commission said Putin's United Russia party had won a record 349 of 450 State Duma seats, cementing its largest ever parliamentary major
