Ukraine unleashed more than a hundred drones smuggled deep into Russia in what it called its most damaging attack yet.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he was sending a Ukrainian delegation to Istanbul for another face-to-face with Russian representatives.

Ukraine has developed, tested, and deployed the Sky Sentinel, a AI-powered turret that it says can down Russia's Shahed drones and cruise missiles.

The strikes help Kyiv "negotiate from a position of strength," Oleksandr Merezhko, the head of Ukraine's parliamentary foreign affairs committee, told Newsweek.

A battle is shaping up in the skies over Ukraine and Russia, as the ingenuity of drone engineers on both sides opens up new opportunities and threats far behind the front lines.

Ukraine's new drone tactics to strike bombers and fighters at airfields across Russia are what a leading airpower expert called "a stunning success."

We simultaneously launched 400 small drones. More than 40 pieces of equipment were destroyed at once.” Thus spoke President Volodymyr Zelenskyy about an operation that shook military analysts and defense engineers alike.
