<p>The Foreign Ministry summoned Britain’s ambassador to Russia on Thursday in connection with last week’s Ukrainian attack targeting Russian military and civilian vessels in Sevastopol. The act of terrorism prompted Moscow to temporarily freeze its participation in the Black Sea grain export deal with Kiev.</p>
<p>Moscow summoned British Ambassador to Russia Deborah Bronnert in connection with London’s suspected involvement in the October 29 attack on the Russian Black Sea Fleet, the Foreign Ministry has revealed.</p>
<p>In a statement, the Ministry indicated that it had information that London transferred a number of unmanned underwater drones to Kiev, and that British specialists have been actively involved in the training and supply of Ukrainian special operations forces, including those involved in sabotage operations at sea.</p>
<p>Moscow warned that Britain’s actions threaten to escalate the security crisis and lead to “unpredictable and dangerous consequences,” and that such “hostile provocations” on London’s part were “inadmissible” and must be stopped immediately.</p>
<p>“If such acts of aggression, fraught with [the UK’s] direct involvement in the conflict, continue, the entire responsibility for their disastrous consequences and the growth of tensions in relations between our states will lie entirely on the British side,” the Foreign Ministry said.</p>
<p>The Russian Black Sea Fleet port of Sevastopol repelled a massive drone attack on October 29, shooting down multiple UAVs and remote-controlled surface vessels in Sevastopol Bay. According to Russia’s Defense Ministry, the warships attacked included ships providing security for the so-called ‘grain corridor’ – the secure maritime route agreed by Moscow and Kiev this summer through which cargo vessels carrying grain from Ukrainian ports through the Black Sea for export abroad.</p>
<p>The Russian military later retrieved drone wreckage from the sea floor to examine the remains, finding Canadian-made navigation modules installed on the maritime drones. Preparations for the drone attack were carried out under the guidance of British specialists in the Ukrainian port city of Ochakov, according to the Russian MoD. Russia destroyed a multi-million pound British-built and financed military base in Ochakov in a missile strike in February during the opening stages of its military operation in Ukraine.</p>
<p>The Sevastopol attack is the second time in weeks that Moscow has called out London on terrorism-related charges. Last week, Russia’s Defense Ministry concluded that the Royal Navy took part in the planning, organization and execution of the late September attacks on the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline network.</p>
<p>On Tuesday, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova asked London to explain the mysterious “It’s done” iPhone text message reportedly sent by now former Prime Minister Liz Truss to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken just moments after Nord Stream was struck.</p>
<p>Earlier this year, Ukrainian and Western media reported that Moscow and Kiev appeared to be on the brink of a peace agreement this spring, but that (now former) British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was quickly dispatched to the Ukrainian capital to scuttle any potential agreement.</p>

<p><em>Commanders of the Israeli Occupying Forces (IOF) have been<span> </span><a href="https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-718422">authorized to use armed drones to kill Palestinians</a><span> </span>in the occupied West Bank, with the approval of Chief of Staff<strong><span> </span>Lt.-Gen. Aviv Kohavi</strong>.</em></p>
<p>Hamas called the order “<a href="https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20220914-hamas-israels-use-of-armed-drones-in-west-bank-a-dangerous-step/">a dangerous step</a>”…</p>
<p><em>Commanders of the Israeli Occupying Forces (IOF) have been<span> </span><a href="https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-718422">authorized to use armed drones to kill Palestinians</a><span> </span>in the occupied West Bank, with the approval of Chief of Staff<strong><span> </span>Lt.-Gen. Aviv Kohavi</strong>.</em></p>
<p>Hamas called the order “<a href="https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20220914-hamas-israels-use-of-armed-drones-in-west-bank-a-dangerous-step/">a dangerous step</a>” and urged Palestinians “to continue resisting the Israeli occupation with all means possible until they regain their legitimate rights.”</p>
<p>The authorization to expand the use of killer drones coincides with “a significant rise in shooting attacks and massive gunfire during arrest raids, specifically in the northern West Bank cities of Jenin and Nablus,”<span> </span><a href="https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-718422">according to<span> </span><em>The Jerusalem Post</em></a>. On September 28,<span> </span><a href="https://www.palestinechronicle.com/report-israel-approves-use-of-drones-to-assassinate-palestinians-in-west-bank/">the IOF killed four Palestinians and injured dozens</a><span> </span>more during protests in Jenin.</p>
<p>Since as early as<span> </span><a href="https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-718422">2008</a>, the Israeli Air Force has been killing Palestinians in Gaza with drones. They have also been used to<span> </span><a href="https://imemc.org/article/israeli-army-begins-using-armed-drones-in-west-bank/">fire gas bombs and live rounds</a><span> </span>in occupied Jerusalem. Although drones have been employed for surveillance, this is the first time armed drones will be utilized in the occupied West Bank. Drones comprise<span> </span><a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-preparing-to-use-armed-drones-in-west-bank-operations/">80 percent of the total flight hours</a> in the Israeli Air Force.</p>
<p>Israel justifies targeting Hamas and Islamic Jihad “terrorists” with drones for “<a href="https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-718422">counter-terrorism</a>” operations if armed gunmen are thought to pose an imminent threat to Israeli troops. But Israel has<span> </span><a href="https://truthout.org/articles/as-an-occupier-israel-isnt-entitled-to-self-defense-under-international-law/">no right of self-defense</a><span> </span>against the people whose land it occupies. The Fourth Geneva Convention says that an occupying power has a legal duty to protect the occupied. As an occupying power, Israel cannot use military force against the occupied Palestinian people.</p>
<p>Under international law, the Palestinians have a lawful right to resist Israel’s occupation of their lands, including through armed struggle. In 1982,<span> </span><a href="https://www.un.org/unispal/document/auto-insert-184195/">the UN General Assembly</a><span> </span>“reaffirmed the legitimacy of the struggle of peoples for independence, territorial integrity, national unity and liberation from colonial and foreign domination and foreign occupation by all available means, including armed struggle.”</p>

<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – China tested unmanned underwater drones that can recognize and attack underwater submarines in the Taiwan Strait more than a decade ago, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported Thursday (July 8).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The tests came to light after researchers from Harbin Engineering University, China’s main submarine research institute, published a paper on the topic last week. The timing of the publication was believed to be linked to recent comments by the United States and Japan about the possibility of military intervention in the case of a Chinese attack against Taiwan.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has been targeted in an attempted attack during a televised public address, officials confirm. Several explosives-laden drones detonated as he was speaking at a military ceremony.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Venezuela's Information Minister Jorge Rodriguez has confirmed that an attack on Maduro took place at the event. Several drones rigged with explosives went off close to the presidential box during the address.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">“All the investigations have indicated that (the explosions) were an attack on President Nicholas Maduro,” Rodriguez told media</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Maduro has been moved to safety and is carrying on with his duties, he said. Seven National Guard soldiers have been injured as a result of the failed assassination, according to Rodriguez. The extent of their injuries has not been revealed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">In the video from the scene, Maduro and the officials standing beside him could be seen looking up in the air seconds before the address was cut off. The feed then cuts to a wide shot of the gathered servicemen, who break formation and start scattering.</span></p>

<p>The Iranian military has given the Russian army a copy of a downed U.S. drone that was captured and disassembled by Iranian authorities in 2012, Iran’s state-run media <a href="http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/10/21/330554/iran-gives-russia-scaneagle-drone/" target="_blank">reported</a> on Monday.</p>
<p>Iran is <a href="http://www.haaretz.com/news/middle-east/iran-says-it-captured-two-more-u-s-drones-before-scaneagle-1.485396" target="_blank">believed</a> to have knocked down and captured a sophisticated U.S.-built ScanEagle drone in 2012. Tehran claims to have reverse-engineered the drone and has now reportedly provided one of them to the Russian military as a “gift,” <a href="http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13920729001105" target="_blank">according</a> to the state-run Fars News Agency.</p>
<p>The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) also provided the Russian army with a “video showing how Iran monitors the trans-regional countries’ vessels and equipment in the Persian Gulf,” according to the report.</p>
<p>Iran claims to have captured several U.S. drones patrolling the region and vowed last year to build a domestic reproduction.</p>
<p>“The drone built by the IRGC is a symbol of the technical capabilities of the Islamic Iran and today we presented a real model of it as a gift to (Russian Air Force Commander) Lieutenant General Viktor Bondarev and the Russian people,” IRGC Brig. Gen. Farzad Esmayeeli was quoted as saying after a meeting with Bondarev in Tehran.</p>
<p>Esmayeeli, who serves as commander of Iran’s Khatam ol-Anbia Air Defense Base, said that he also gave the Russians a video copy of the “IRGC’s monitoring of the trans-regional states’ warships and equipment in the Persian Gulf,” according to the report.</p>
<p>The ScanEagle drone that Iran claims to have replicated was originally built by Boeing and used by the U.S. military and intelligence.</p>
<p>Iran <a href="http://www.theverge.com/2013/2/11/3976396/iran-scan-eagle-production" target="_blank">first claimed</a> in February that it had begun to domestically produce its own version of the ScanEagle drone.</p>
<p>The IRGC has put great emphasis on Iran’s drone capabilities in recent years as it seeks to combat Western forces stationed in the region.</p>
<p>The “ScanEagle had been in our possession before and we have even copied it in production,” a senior Iranian military leader was <a href="http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13920729001105" target="_blank">quoted</a> as saying late last year.</p>
<p>Russia’s Bondarev arrived in Iran over the weekend for a four-day visit, <a href="http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/10/21/330554/iran-gives-russia-scaneagle-drone/" target="_blank">according</a> to Iran’s state-run Press TV. Iranian Air Force Commander, Brig. Gen. Hassan Shah-Safi, reportedly invited Bondarev.</p>
<p>Bondarev was scheduled to hold talks with “senior Iranian military officials” and was quoted as celebrating “the capabilities of the IRGC” and praising its “great achievements,” according to Press TV.</p>
<p>Russia and Iran signed a security cooperation agreement in January and the two countries have worked closely with one another on both military and economic issues.</p>
<p>Russian leader Vladamir Putin <a href="http://www.timesofisrael.com/putin-to-visit-iran/" target="_blank">traveled</a> to Iran in September to meet with Iranian President Hassan Rowhani.</p>
<p>The two countries have also worked closely to prevent a Western military strike against embattled Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.</p>

<p class="infuse">ON A dusty road in northern Pakistan, a nondescript vehicle rounds a corner. Fifty metres overhead, a tiny drone buzzes unseen, spraying a fine mist across the vehicle's roof as it passes below. The vehicle is now tagged, and can be tracked from many kilometres away by an infrared scanner on a larger drone.</p>
<p class="infuse">This scenario may soon be played out now that <a href="http://voxtel-inc.com/">Voxtel</a>, a firm in Beaverton, Oregon, has <a href="http://sbirsource.com/sbir/awards/65975-optimized-taggant-delivery-systems">won a US Air Force contract</a> to develop a drone-based tagging system. Voxtel makes tagging materials – taggants – that can be used to discreetly label vehicles carrying smuggled goods, or people who are involved in civil disobedience or attempting to cross international borders illegally.</p>
<p class="infuse">Interest in tagging technology has been driven in part by growing pressure on the White House over civilian deaths in US drone attacks. During a recent visit to Pakistan, <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-23545221">US Secretary of State John Kerry stated that drone strikes there will end "very, very soon"</a>. Tagging by drones would allow people to be tracked for subsequent arrest.</p>

<p>Technology is constantly expanding, and this is particularly true when it comes to unmanned aerial vehicles. Drones are quickly gaining popularity with the military, government institutions and in the civilian sector and uses for UAVs are expected to expand dramatically in the years to come - so much so that the <i>Federal Aviation Administration</i> (FAA) has been charged with developing new rules governing their deployment.<br/><br/>In fact, UAV technology has now progressed to the point where they can be controlled by thought. Per tech website <i>PopSci</i>:<br/><br/><i>Researchers at the University of Minnesota [have] revealed a drone that can be controlled merely by thought, and that's not even the coolest thing about it. Published in the</i> Journal of Neuro Engineering<i>, the project has implications in everything from unmanned vehicles to paraplegic mobility.</i><br/><br/>According to researchers, the futuristic capabilities are actually very basic. The drone itself is now commercially available as a four-blade helicopter called the <i>Parrot AR</i> quadrotor, which is essentially a drone hobbyist's Model T (the first mass-produced automobile).<br/><br/></p>
<h1>A funny hat and a laptop</h1>
<p>"To control it, the 'pilot' wears a funny hat, the sensing end of an electroencephalogram (EEG)," <i>PopSci</i> reported. "EEGs place an array of electrodes over a person's head, in a totally non-invasive way, then pick up on electrical activity in the brain. Clusters of activity, like thinking about making a fist with a right hand, generates a spark in a specific area of the brain. That spark gets translated through a computer into a quadrotor command ('turn right'). The command is then beamed to the quadrotor via WiFi."</p>
