The war story no Hollywood scriptwriter could make up
Kostiantyn Vlasenko spent 491 days stranded in the kill zone and had to amputate his leg with a blunt knife. Then he became the first soldier ever evacuated from the front line by aerial drone.
The story behind the world’s first unmanned aerial drone evacuation is insane.
Kostiantyn Vlasenko cut his own leg off to survive 200 days alone in kill zone after 8 months in a concrete pipe.
His wife sent a Stephen King book by drone.

Ukraine has conducted the first unmanned drone evacuation of an injured soldier in the history of warfare.
The modified bomber flew the 80kg infantryman 11 miles to safety, flanked by a fleet of quadcopters armed with nets to snare enemy aircraft.

My night with elite Ukrainian special forces whose long-range drones are causing such devastation for Putin that Trump’s being accused of sabotaging them

This is an essential read. And important to acknowledge that the Daily Mail - itself a much criticised news outlet - was one of the very few that continued to cover events unfolding inside Iran behind digital blackouts from January - May this year.
When the dust settles and people acknowledge the truth of what actually transpired inside Iran, there will be many discoveries as to why the world turned away from the Iranian people in their time of need. Even when the US and Israel acted, it was sadly way too late.
Those of us who were calling for “RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT”, a @UN norm to halt mass atrocity and crimes against humanity - in force when President Obama intervened in Libya in 2011 - we were then branded ‘war mongers’. With the evidence laid bare now, anyone who did, shame on you.
Many individuals and entities who dismissed the atrocities of the regime will be found out and exposed.
And to those who only showed an interest in Iran after the disaster of the school bombing on Feb 28th, a special mention for you:
Playing politics with millions of lives, ignoring the massacres by the Islamic regime whilst more than ready to lay blame on the US and Israel by focusing only on the Minab tragedy, turning attention away from the people inside Iran being slaughtered by the regime into a propaganda war between “imperialism” and “the resistance” is particularly despicable.
Siding with the Islamic Republic - which is neither Islamic nor a republic - is shameful. It is NOT, and never was ‘the resistance’. It is a radicalised, fanatical cult, hell bent on clinging to power. At any cost. Human or otherwise.

For the first time, the world can see the January massacre unfold in sequence, through the lenses of the brave Iranians who took to the streets and documented what happened around them, sometimes in their final moments.
Hours of previously unseen footage, gathered and preserved by @ManotoNews, reveal the scale of the Islamic Republic’s mass killing of protesters. There is no outside narrator. The Iranian people recorded their own courage, the regime’s brutality and the truth it tried to conceal.

Read the investigation by @AndyJehring and @NatalieLisbona, and watch the four-part documentary This Is Our Story.
They risked everything to leave this evidence behind. The least the world can do is watch, share and refuse to let their voices be silenced.
Content warning: graphic and deeply distressing footage.

For 9 months after the largest slaughter of protesters in modern history Iranians’ grief and suffering has been ignored by the outside world. Thanks to incredible work by @manototv now Khamenei’s crime scene is open for all to see.

Hours and hours of previously unseen, sickening footage collected by @ManotoNews document the Iranian regime’s mass killing of protesters.
@AndyJehring and I were given access to this extraordinary archive — including footage captured by protesters in their final moments.
The scale of the bloodshed, and the brutality of the regime, are laid bare.

Daily Mail — Monday 14 September — Boris Johnson’s train in Ukraine was allegedly targeted by a Russian drone strike, in what experts call a Kremlin “message”. #TomorrowsPapersToday
A year ago Ukrainian Danylo Voronov took a photo with 11 members of his family to celebrate his wedding day. Today just three survive after a single Russian missile strike killed them in their home last week.

The voices of the Iranian people deserve to be heard.
In today’s Daily Mail, @NatalieLisbona and @AndyJehring shine a light on the human cost of the Islamic Republic’s brutality and the determination of Iranians who continue to fight for freedom despite unimaginable repression.
What makes this piece especially important is the reporters’ direct access to Iranians inside the country. They bring first-hand testimony from people living through the repression, fear, grief, and anger, voices the world too often fails to hear.
'I promise you the next protest will be even more extensive than the January protests,' a man in Tehran, who lost his cousin and a friend in the massacre said over the phone.
'More people are ready now , especially the family and friends of those who lost loved ones and who didn't participate last time.'

Excl. British defence chiefs branded 'reckless' as they are unable to say how many Chinese devices the UK use to build drones & critical weapons.
The MOD has no idea how many 3D printers it bought from Beijing-linked firms despite huge security concerns.

Full depravity of Hamas during October 7 revealed for the first time: New report details how terrorists performed almost unimaginable horrors upon Israeli families trib.al/olj7tnv
Andy Jehring retweeted
While ordinarily newspapers censor the full horrors of such accounts from Oct 7, today the Daily Mail as hard as it is, publishes the details because unbelievably, some still question the largest slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust. Even certain sections of the established media have suggested that the extent of sexual violence committed by the terrorists may have been exaggerated.
The UN, too, dragged its heels in recognising the atrocities committed. It seems 'believe all women' did not apply in this instance. @AndyJehring
