Ukraine said it took a Russian position using just drones and ground robots.
Zelenskyy said it was a wartime first, and no Ukrainian infantry was involved.
He said robots have done over 22,000 missions in three months, keeping many soldiers from harm.
Until the drones start getting used on civilians. Which is absolutely going to happen and soon.
It’s been happening for a good 20 years already. Do you think US drone strikes were all military targets? Do you think both russia and ukraine didn’t absolutely dronefuck multiple population centers? Do you think israel didn’t use drones to carry out its genocides? There are probably tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of dead civilians due to drone strikes already.
You’re not wrong but I was specifically referencing the ground based drones with my comment. Apologies that wasn’t clear.
Ah yeah, that makes sense. But I feel like it may be a bit easier to run away from a ground-based drone than it is from an aerial one. For one, they’re much slower so you’d probably have a more advanced warning.
It’s been happening for ages already. What reality do you people live in?
“Whaddya mean, ‘you people’?”
We should probably secure rights to EMPs for self defense.
