    Not yet, but compiling all rumors I’ve heard so far: Ukraine drove trucks full of drones to different airbases in Siberia, once there, they managed to access the local phone service to navigate ~100 drones and hit the targets. So it was a perfect coordination of hacking, intel, undercover, drone operation and opsec :D

    russian outlets reported:

    Russian Strategic Aviation intercepts hundreds of Ukrainian drones.

      I’ll keep an eye out for that. Also, apparently the truck drivers were completely unaware of the nature of their cargo.

        It’s definitely plausible. I’m not sure exactly what sort of system they use in Russia, but I’d guess truckers the world over are frequently sent to new places with vague instructions to follow once you’re there.

          That could also be a wee story, so the Russians will stop looking for someone still in Russia. But I suspect it’s the truth.
