Yes, which the article does not say they’ve failed to do. In fact, the article says that the videos submitted as evidence seem to support its legal use not in Gaza, but near Lebanon, and that Human Rights Watch submitted no videos at all showing white phosphorus in Gaza.
The videos attached to the claim show it being used for smokescreens, which Reuters comments is legal.
I figure they may be able to compare flight plans with actual course and tell when a pilot is diverging from the planned route. Based on how they are diverging, it may suggest that they are trying to book it to Ukraine? Not sure if this is actually possible, but it’s the best way I can imagine them being able to tell, other than the pilot just disobeying immediate orders and heading for the border, which would be pretty obvious.
Interesting thought. Is there any indication that this or the other Su-35 shot down by friendly fire were potential defectors? The Russian army has displayed such astounding incompetence at different times throughout the war, my immediate assumption was that these were just two more, but the idea of defection seems not unlikely for much the same reason…
This is the move. You can cut/pull apart a cotton ball and put some in there so they don’t rattle around in there too
Yeah, talking about the much more common types you see people using more often in cities. Also why I didn’t say 25% faster than the highest end ones
25% faster than a quick electric scooter
Either that or he’s implying that some of the politicians you or I might like would be among those revealed to be unethical/treasonous/etc. Which brings us back to the same response–yes, please hold them accountable! I’d love to know if I’m supporting a terrible person, so I can stop.
At the scale of war, something purpose-built like this is helpful because it’s customized and standardized for exactly what they want it to do. But if it would really be that helpful for individual acts of terror, I think we’d have seen rudimentary versions by now. If terrorists haven’t been using RC cars or rovers already, I don’t think this is enough of a jump in tech to make them start.
