How Russia squandered its drone advantage (and why it might cost it the war?)

The war in Ukraine has taken an interesting turn over the past few months. Way back in 2023, the front lines appeared deadlocked, with the Ukrainian offensive achieving only modest results. Then, 2024 and especially 2025, saw steadily increasing Russian territorial gains. But this first half of 2026 brought us something completely different and unexpected. Russia had an advantage. Including an advantage in drones. And it seems to have lost it. This video will explain how and why that happened - and what cascading effects it all might have on the future course of the war. 00:00 Intro 01:02 Slow frontline gains 03:25 Starlink issue 06:34 Fiber optics & AI targeting 08:46 Anti-logistics strikes 10:21 Morale and money Music by Matija Malatestinic http://www.malatestinic.com Get your Binkov mugs here: https://binkov-wants-you.creator-spri...
