    Turkish fighter jets shoot down 'out of control' drone over Black Sea (Euronews)

    Turkey shot down an "out of control" drone that approached its airspace from the Black Sea, according to the defence ministry.

    F-16 fighter planes were scrambled after the drone was detected, the Turkish defence ministry said in a statement late on Monday.

    "To avoid any potential harm, it was shot down in a safe area outside of populated area," it said. The statement gave no further details of the location or time of the incident.

People are being brought in from other regions. This has been a recurring problem," Taro said.

      Maybe it's incompetence. But the string of other incidents says otherwise. I don't understand Putin: why stir the pot so much for everyone else, instead of keep focusing on "once you abandon Ukraine we'll behave"?

      I used to post about the Ukraine war in ~news, but they all got moved here, so now I save the mods the trouble and post them directly here instead.
