    Not sure if Russia is being annoying here of they are actually doing Europeans a service by waking them up to the drone warfare revolution.

      At a military exercise in this day and age, I’d have fully expected some drone warfare being simulated. If that has been forgotten, unsimulated drone action is the next best thing, I guess.

      Definitely both. They just can’t help shooting themselves in the foot through their idiotic asshole behaviour.

    Sounds like a pretty good opportunity to train under more realistic conditions.

    “Unidentified” drones “disrupt” military exercises huh.

    Come the fuck ON. russia is so confident they’ve got trumps balls in their purse (and they do!) they’re just out here threatening the joint military for lulz.

    Tick Tock, Europe. Maybe you can send Merkel to negotiate. Again.

    Russia has exactly ONE strategy: keep warring. Throw more meat in there. That’s it. That’s the only plan they will ever have.

    Dutch troops taking part in NATO exercises in Poland encountered several unidentified drones and experienced communication disruptions, the Dutch defence ministry has confirmed.

    Russian drones did this… right?
