Russia's drone machine grew while the West watched
During the war in Ukraine, there is a sound that cannot be mistaken for anything else. It is the monotonous buzzing of the engine of an Iranian Shahed attack drone — the same one Russia has been using en masse since the fall of 2022 to strike Ukrainian cities. Ukrainians often call these drones "mopeds" because of the distinctive engine noise that resembles the sound of an old scooter.
When that sound appears over a city at night, it means only one thing — a drone is flying somewhere nearby.
