We Didn't Wait Long: Explosive-Laden Goggles Target Russian FPV Drone Operators
According to social media reports, Russian authorities are investigating a scheme targeting FPV drone operators with explosive-laden goggles. This plot, reminiscent of last year's mass attack on Hezbollah involving explosive-packed pagers and walkie-talkies, was successfully thwarted before any devices were activated.
The Russian Razved Dozor Telegram channel reported that Ukrainians attempted to execute this act using unwitting volunteers to deliver mined FPV Skyzone Cobra goggles. These goggles contained IEDs with 10-15 grams of plastic explosive, designed to detonate upon activation.
Authorities intercepted several suspicious packages, and the vigilance of military personnel was crucial in averting this disaster. The sender, identified as "Roman," reportedly used SDEK, a global logistics company, to ship the parcels.
While the explosive amount was small, the potential for damage and psychological impact on troops is significant. This incident underscores the vulnerability of electronic devices in combat zones to sabotage.
These two examples, in Lebanon and Russia, highlight the urgent need for heightened security measures and thorough inspections of electronic equipment.

Urgent Update:
Moments ago, #Iran initiated a significant offensive by launching over 50 drones towards #Israel. The drones are currently en route to their intended targets, and it is estimated to take several hours for them to reach their destinations. Additionally, there are indications that Iran may follow up this drone attack with a barrage of ballistic missiles in the near future.
In response to this imminent threat, the airspace of several countries has been closed, with more expected to follow suit shortly.
This marks the first direct attack by Iran on Israel, escalating tensions in the region to a critical level. The situation is rapidly evolving, and the coming days will undoubtedly be crucial in determining the course of events.

Novatek natural gas company port terminal is on fire after being targeted by multiple Ukrainian drones in the Kingiseppsky district of the Leningrad region. Heavy explosions and fires were reported on January 21st at 3.20am. The location is almost 900km from the Ukrainian border.
Is this SOF action, or did Ukraine use a drone with a more than 1000 km range? It will be interesting to hear.

While testing the SeaTerra Geophysics & EOD Services #DMAG, we identified essential details for quality data collection.
We believe this applies universally.
- Stabile flight and speed (automatic mode)
- As low as possible flight (ideal 0.5m)
- Always use an RTK base station to obtain precise data
- Data analysis needs to understand the process of collecting data and have all relevant information from the field
Remember, #UAS is just a tool, and you need to understand its limitations (It's not a magic wand)
Your experience is valuable to us. We would appreciate it if you shared your thoughts with us. Thank you in advance for taking the time to share your experience.

There are reports on social media regarding the new #Russian air-launched cruise #missile Kh-101 subvariant Object 504AP deploying countermeasures. It seems that in the video, the countermeasure deployed was not a standard decoy flair but instead, a dipole anti-radar reflector made of thin metal strips, metalized paper, or fibreglass threads.
The first information about these subvariants emerged in late 2022. At that time, it was said that the countermeasures were intended to jam surface-to-air missiles.
