Groups like spirit of america, ngo trying to get enough information for drones that are collecting information on russia. this has become a drone war. that s going to be the name of the game right here. not only of the drones but thermal imaging type blankets that are protecting ukrainian soldiers so the russians can t detect them. there s so many data points being established. this has become a drone war. that s really fascinating about the blankets. obviously they re trying to spot them on the front lines. right. we re also learning about these explosions that it had these key bridges that essentially tie crimea, which russia illegally annexed in 2014, with other parts of ukraine that are under russian control. how much of an impact does that have and what does it say to you about where we are as we are approaching two months of the counteroffensive. we saw the bridge. they are designed to knock out the eastern artery of the logistics and the ground lines of communication. i ....
