This week, we discuss the Ukrainian drones destroying a Russian Black Sea fleet ship and the possibilities for further military gains due to the advanced use of UAVs by Ukraine. Ukraine is ramping up its domestic production and now promises to make around 2 million drones in 2024. On many directions of the frontlines, however, Ukrainian troops need to take defensive positions and prepare for the anticipated Russian offensive. #Ukraine #war #Russia #russiaukrainewar #russianinvasion

The Dutch Ministry of Defence (Ministerie van Defensie) has entered into a EUR 42.6 million agreement with the Netherlands-based company DeltaQuad to supply advanced Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) drones to Armed Forces of Ukraine. DeltaQuad's unarmed ISR drones are designed to fly long distances and provide real-time battlefield intelligence. Equipped with the latest technology, they can remain undetected, resist jamming, and operate autonomously if contact with their home base is lost. These capabilities are crucial for Ukraine, which relies on such drones to monitor Russian military movements and strengthen its defensive positions. The purchase is part of a larger EUR 400 million fund allocated for the Drone Action Plan, with more than 50% of this investment benefiting the Dutch drone industry. The deal with DeltaQuad is a key element of this initiative, aimed at enhancing the Dutch defence sector while supporting Ukraine’s military needs.

"It must be verified," he said, replying to a comment on the matter. "If you recall their statements <...> when they were joining NATO, they said that Finland would not deploy any elements of military infrastructure near our borders," Peskov said. "This is none other than elements of military infrastructure," the Kremlin official concluded. Earlier, Yle, Finland's national public broadcasting company, reported that Helsinki had offered NATO to host a base for surveillance of unmanned aerial vehicles. According to the news outlet, there are four potential locations for such a base. Finland, which officially joined NATO in March 2023, declared the security of its borders and the lack of necessity to deploy the forces of the military bloc on its territory. Russian President Vladimir Putin cautioned that stationing NATO military infrastructure on Finnish soil would trigger an equivalent response. #business #finance #financialservices

NATO's 'Drone Wall', or perhaps 'Drone Curtain', is set to protect alliance borders from Norway to Poland. It will reportedly add to physical barriers and surveillance, while protecting against "provocations by unfriendly countries". The idea of a 'drone wall' is far from new. In fact, if you look further north into regions of the Arctic, it can be seen how NATO's developments could work well with measures already implemented by Western Arctic allies to patrol the region against Russian incursions. Russia, it should be said, has also being doing something very similar.
