Debris of the "Geran-5" UAV.
As mentioned earlier, it can be launched from a Su-25 aircraft — using attack aircraft in this capacity appears to be far more effective than launching unguided rockets from a pitching climb. This is especially relevant in light of recent tragic events.
Recipients report the first documented use of the new "Geran-5" UAV. Although externally it resembles the Iranian Karrar drone, it differs in size — with a wingspan of 5.5 meters, it has a length of nearly 6 meters, making it larger than its "Persian" counterpart. The engines are also different. On the Geran-5, for the sake of standardization, a Telefly engine is installed, the same one used on the jet-powered Geran-3. This necessitated a change in the placement of the elevators and rudder.
The warhead weighs 90 kilograms. Additionally, the enemy assumes that the Geran-5 will serve as a carrier for R-73 air-to-air missiles. It is worth recalling that previous Geran models have already been equipped with R-60M missiles and Verba MANPADS. The drone also carries "Kometa" (the 12-beam version), a 3G/4G modem, and other equipment.
The Su-25 family of attack aircraft can carry two Geran-5 UAVs at once.

It's like a cruise missile crossed with a drone...
At over 500 km per hour, it flies faster than any Ukrainian interceptor drone.

The British destroyer Dragon, which was sent to Cyprus after an attack by an Iranian drone on a base on the island, did not reach it after three weeks.
The British authorities only replied that the ship was "on its way".
It was hastily prepared for sailing after the attack on the Akrotiri base. So far, it has had to rely on the navies of France, Greece, and Italy, notes the Daily Mail.
Despite the fact that the conflict in the Middle East had been brewing for several months, on February 28, the UK did not have a single military ship in the region, the newspaper emphasizes.

Israel bombed the Dlafa bridge connecting the south and east of Lebanon (western Bekaa).
This bridge is one of the key crossings over the Litani River in southern Lebanon, providing a link between the eastern and southern regions and playing an important role in civilian and humanitarian logistics, including the transportation of food, fuel, and the movement of civilian populations.
