Ukraine's new, drone-delivered weapon is basically a phallic claymore

1 week ago | wearethemighty.com | Logan Nye

Sometimes, the absolute legends in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and their booster clubs are so funny that we almost forget they’re actually, at every moment, at war. And that was the case today when Reddit user GermanDronePilot on r/UkraineWarVideoReport shared the video of a Ukrainian pouring ball bearings into the casing for a “shaped” charge.

This author, for one, doesn’t think the current peace talks will end the war in Ukraine. Honestly, I’d be excited if they brought about another cease-fire. But if the talks result in peace, then a few interesting things will happen all at once. Most importantly, Ukrainians would be able to breathe relatively freely for the first time since the 2022 Russian invasion. Also, the largest peacekeeping force in recent memory would swing into place in Ukraine.
