Fitting username

clara ,

citing abc news (link here), us official says 400 to 500 drones

unconfirmed reports of ballistic missiles in the air too, it's all osint right now so no good source on that yet, if i get one i'll add it as a reply

redcalcium ,

Does this mean Iran would stop supplying drones to Russia?

@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

At this point I believe the shaheds are manufactured in Russia. I know at minimum some quantity of them are.

@skillissuer@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

if you're refering to facility in alabuga, then they're making hulls, but not sure about the entire rest of the drone. russians are also clearly capable of making warheads

clara ,

okay, here's al jazeera reporting on the ballistic missile, it's a one liner but it's something

this is a saturation attack imo, the question is, at what target?

skillissuer Mod ,
@skillissuer@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

these stayed unconfirmed

skillissuer Mod ,
@skillissuer@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

update 2: these were confirmed, but only later. ultimately, it was: 170 drones, 30 cruise missiles, all intercepted outside israeli airspace, and 120 ballistic missiles, most intercepted outside israeli airspace. some noncritical damage to nevatim AB (east of beersheba)

    psud ,

    I mean, of course the missiles look good

    1. They fly; and
    2. They were produced by a military industrial company

    Someone downvoted this. It is the fruit, then, sirrah? You dislike my grafts?

    FiniteBanjo ,

    I've been saying that Israel are a bunch of incompetent fucks unable to realize they're surrounded by hornets nests, but it looks like they're about to bring peace to the middle east (by being the common enemy).

    My only wish is that the USA and NATO don't get dragged into a drawn out conflict over Bibi's stupid asshattery.

    curiousaur ,

    Lol, the whole conflict in Gaza has been going on for as long as it has because the US and Israel want Iran to do this. They've been wanting a reason to wipe Iran off the map before they get nukes, and they fell into the trap card.

    Icalasari ,

    2024 oddly feels like the right year for WWIII to start

    Coreidan ,

    How many more concurrent wars do we need before we call it ww3? Some would argue we are already in ww3.

    photonic_sorcerer ,
    @photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

    There are currently no superpowers (US/China) actively engaged in conflicts with boots on the ground.

    Coreidan ,

    Technically only US is a superpower. China isn’t quite there yet.

    We can be in ww3 without US being involved.

    photonic_sorcerer ,
    @photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

    I'd argue that China has achieved superpower status at this point. But I agree with you that there could be a third world war without the US, just like last time. However, it'd be difficult to have such a war without a superpower. Last time, we had a few more of those.

    @raktheundead@fedia.io avatar

    I think the PRC lacks something in the soft power stakes; they've created some degree of good will outside the West, but they suck at projecting cultural output that doesn't stem from the imperial Chinese era.

    context? what happened over there?

    SkyezOpen ,

    Iran chucked a few drones and missiles at Israel. They got blasted out of the sky by a few different militaries. Iran said it was retaliation for the embassy attack and considered the matter settled.

    Scrof ,

    Iran bought into their own propaganda and thought they can actually do something this stupid and achieve any kind of success. LMAO at Iran. They should pray there wouldn't be any severe repercussions and I don't believe there wouldn't, Israel and US have been waiting for a reason to cripple that totalitarian hellhole for years, it would even help Ukraine too as Iran is the best buddy of Russia these days.
