As war wages on and people try and look for shelter, Ukraine is getting drone support from America, that were apparently used in Afghanistan too. There are 100 armed drones being sent to meet the onslaught that has seen merciless attacks on a theatre and school where civilians were taking refuge.     The decision comes after America refused to declare area over Ukraine as a no flight zone, that would pit it directly against Russia and participant to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Over the weekend, the US said it was in discussions with Poland about a potential deal in which Poland would supply Ukraine with MiG-29 fighter jets that Ukraine has requested, and the US would then provide Poland with American F-16s.   If a Russian attack extends into one of the bordering NATO countries, it could trigger Article 5 of NATO's founding treaty, which is the principle that an attack on one member of the alliance is an attack on all members. If Article 5 is i...

In a strange discovery, it has been ascertained that the drones employed to set an attack on the Iraqi PM were actually locally made. This has been determined by a top security official. The actual infiltrator has not been pinpointed though. Hours after the attempt on his life, Iraqi Security forces had to actually close the heavily fortified Green Zone as they tightened security measures hours after the assassination attempt on the prime minister in Baghdad. Mustafa Al Kadhimi was attacked by two drones which were apparently home grown according to National Security Adviser Qassem Al Araji . The attack was carried out inside Baghdad's high-security Green Zone. The PM has asked for no assumptions to be made and that thorough investigations should ascertain the origins of the drone attacks that could have been fatal. The attack against Mr. Al Kadhimi came amid rising tensions over the results of the elections on October 10. Preliminary results of that poll saw the Conquest (...

Drone technology can actually help solve the problem of deforestation It would be an incredible feat of innovation if seeds could be planted in mass, in the most predictable manner. Drone technology today is making this possible. Through this, we can look at planting a thousand trees in a day. This can be done by firing seeds directly at the ground. By putting seeds in a pod that is biodegradable, the pod is then shot into the ground through a drone. Intelligent sky trackers are using digital intelligence and automation to plant seeds with both speed and accuracy. Through artificial intelligence, scientist have identified the right species that can thrive in the right environment and therefore plant them when need be. This information is then fed into the drone that then follows a path and continues to plant seeds accordingly. What the scientists are now looking for a swarm of such drones that can actually help solve the problem of famine and deforestation. UAE for example has alre...
