Ukraine has developed the "Nika" small anti-aircraft missile, which will soon undergo testing and be deployed to shoot down jet-powered "Shahed" drones, Zelenskyy said. The Ukrainian-German "Spys" interceptor has successfully passed testing. УКРАЇНА БУЛА, Є І БУДЕ! СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ! СМЕРТЬ ВОРОГАМ! 🫡🐱🇺🇦

According to the article, ‘she’s receiving life-saving care’. So they’re trying to save her life, then presumably nurse her back to health, until she’s recovered enough for them to try and kill her again. I don’t understand any of this. 😞

Happy October 1st and start to spooky season (though for me, that begins in September 👻). It's my favorite time of year, so I thought I would kick it off with something pretty scary!
Four global maps showing near-surface air temperature anomalies for the month of October in 1986-1995, 1996-2005, 2006-2015, and 2016-2025. Most all areas are observing long-term warming, which is largest over the Arctic region. Anomalies are calculated relative to 1951-1980 from ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis.

Reports suggest that the land immediately adjacent to the permitted site is
being developed and the number of pitches has increased significantly. It was
agreed that the activities would be reported to the CDC Planning Enforcement
team, and they would be sent copies of the drone footage.
