FPV drone operator course
Admin was recently in Ukraine for some training, which included a two week Military FPV Drone Operator course from Global Drone Academy.
First week was split between theory and flying on simulators in a classroom environment. Second week began flying smaller Cinewhoop drones indoors, followed by a few days in the field, flying 7 inch drones.
There were tests on the theory side and simulator at the end of the first week, to make sure students are ready to progress to the second week. Second week ended with a practical test flight, setting up a long range antenna and ground station, planning a route to avoid jammers and striking a target.
A big shout out to my instructor R, especially (also O for his help during the second week). GDA accepts English speaking students and civilians/beginners. The course is accredited by both the Ukrainian MoD and ministry of education.

Michoacán: Fuerzas Especiales Wicho sicarios firing a .50 cal Barrett in broad daylight
Here, sicarios from the Fuerzas Especiales Wicho (FEW 🚾), of the Carteles Unidos alliance, can be seen firing a .50 cal Barrett M82 at rivals from CJNG from an up armoured box truck.
This is not unusual, however here, they are seen firing in broad daylight, inside the city limits of either Cotija or Los Reyes, where CJNG regularly attempts to infiltrate.

Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷: Red Command gang members shoot down rival TCP drone
In the Chapadão complex, members of the Red Command (CV 🚩) managed to shoot down a DJI Air 3S drone, reportedly belonging to rival members of the Third Pure Command (TCP).
The drone is equipped with an aftermarket payload release system and a homemade delivery device to carry a grenade, which appears to be a plastic cup held by string and tape to a metal ring.
The use of drones for both surveillance and direct strikes has sharply increased in Rio de Janeiro in recent weeks.

Rifle? ✅ Drone? ✅ Vape? ✅
Here, a sicario from the Knights Templars cartel can be seen with his daily carry, somewhere in Uruapan, Michoacán.
The drone controller is a DJI RC Plus 2, typically used with the heavier duty DJI drones, such as the Matrice series. These are favoured by cartels as bomber drones, for their increased payload and flight times.
He is armed with an AK platform rifle (needs to watch the safety) and dressed in full tactical gear.

Sicarios x wildlife
Sicarios from the Fuerzas Especiales de Isidro (FEDI) can be seen here with an opossum joey, somewhere in Sinaloa.
After biting the starlink cable, the opossum is relocated to the magazine pouch of another sicario, which is kinda funny considering opossums have pouches for their young.
