From the france24 article:

> A government investigation reportedly identified the first of the three drones as a Shahed model used by Russia in its war with Ukraine.

The first drone on 24.07 took ~80min to intercept and shoot down, well into the country. The other 2 were shot down within kilometers of the border so they’re paying closer attention.

Also, how's Ukraine war is sustainable for Ukraine? It's economy is non-existent (almost 100% dependent on western donations), it has less than 50% of population of 2022 (they don't publish any population stats directly, but if you combine available statistics, there are about 10-15 millions left most of them old retired people or young people that are too young to send them to the front lines), they are losing territory every day.

This is some weird "Ukraine is winning but front is moving in the wrong direction" logic.

I don't know if it's to try and circumvent Ukrainian defenses or to provoke a reaction to sell to domestic audiences though.

Escalating tensions between Russia and NATO is in Ukraine's, not Russia's, interest.

For the case of a hot war, knowing the detection and destruction capabilities of your future enemy is valuable.

You know, I used to have this style view when reading and commenting Slashdot, pre-9/11 about anything other than "the tech".

Afterward, in high school, I began to feel that understanding the foundations of geopolitics can help you maintain an advantage in the business world.
