kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/10/2025These incidents have occurred after Ukraine accelerated their campaign of strikes against Russian oil infra. It shows, in my opinion, the psychological impact Ukrainian drones are having on Russian military command. There appears to be significant pressure to find and target Ukrainian drones. 050
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/10/2025It is unlikely that a Ukrainian drone team would arrive on 26 September and then just hang about in the same spot for 4 days and wait to get hit by a missile. There are also striking similarities between this (Blue) and the strike on a group of deminers (Red) a month ago, also in Chernhiv Oblast. 140
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/10/2025The Sentinel-1 SAR satellite also detected the arrival of the trucks between 26 September and 29 September. There are no other SAR detections in 2025 and the only detection in 2024 is in late October, also assessed as likely agricultural. 120
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/10/2025Secondly, sat images from the area shows ongoing agricultural work at a field approximately 1km from the airstrip. The sat imagery also shows what I assess is likely vehicle activity at the airstrip only when the agricultural activity starts suggesting that the two are linked. 120
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/10/2025Firstly, the footage from the drone at no point shows any evidence of drones being prepared, launched, or transported from or near these trucks. In fact, in at least one of the trucks, what appears to be grain or a similar crop is visible and another appears to be empty. 120
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/10/2025On Wednesday, the Russian MoD released footage of a combined ballistic missile/drone strike on what they claimed were trucks transporting Ukrainian drones. Ukraine claim they were loading grain. Russia's own footage and satellite imagery disputes their claims of drone launches.🧵 241

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 09/03/2025Significant number of fires detected today in Sudzha, Kursk Oblast after Russian and North Korean infantry launched a large-scale offensive aimed to push Ukraine out of Russian territory. I wouldn't be surprised if Putin has demanded the Ukrainians are pushed out prior to May 9. 0172
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 07/03/2025Three days ago, Zelenskyy offered a mutual ban on the targeting of civilian energy infrastructure. Russia gave their response overnight with a large-scale missile attack on Ukraine's gas facilities. I'd expect to see some Russian oil refineries struck before Monday. 0213
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 04/03/2025Zelensky offers a mutual ban on missiles, long-range drones, a ceasefire at sea, and prisoner exchanges in order to reach a peace deal with Russia. The ball is now firmly in Russia's court. 0194
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 28/02/2025This very public meltdown is, of course, fantastic for Russia in the short term. Expect to see this on repeat through their media and also through their supporter's social media channels. This will also cause a lot of concern re: arms supply for Ukraine. Others need to step up. 0202
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Well that's the US involvement in any peace negotiations dead. That's the one positive to come out of this, the mask has slipped and they never had any intention of fighting for a fair deal for Ukraine. Let Europe take the lead. 1404
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 28/02/2025The Ukrainian Air Force have posted their final overnight report of February and the total numbers for the month are huge, even when compared to the spike we saw beginning in September 2024. The Russians are launching a massive number of drones at Ukraine on a daily basis. 1328
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Trump has gone from calling Zelensky a dictator to saying that they're going to ask Russia to give up a large part of the occupied coastline (see Berdyansk and Mariupol). It's going to be interesting when Putin's response is the equivalent of laughing in his face. 1262
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 25/02/2025Another massive Russian drone attack against Ukraine last night, the second time in three days that more than 200 total drones have been reported. Over those 3 days, Russia fired more drones at Ukraine than any individual month between January and July 2024. 1153
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 20/02/2025In the first 20 days of February, the Ukrainian Air Force have reported 14 days in which the Russians launched 100 or more attack drones at Ukrainian cities. To put that in context, between Jan 1 and Nov 31 2024, there were 15 days. There were none in 2023. 0377

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 03/01/2025Bought myself a drone and then also set myself up an Instagram so I don't spam all the photos here (I'm sure I still will). Give me a follow if you enjoy very average photography. www.instagram.com/kg_dronephot... 0180

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 17/12/2024"Bombing Russian cities is an unacceptable escalation". "Killing Russian generals is an unacceptable escalation". How long before these idiots insist that killing Russian soldiers inside Ukraine is an unacceptable escalation? 0202

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 16/12/2024The number of Shahed/Geran drones launched by Russia in December so far is slightly down on November but still very high compared to pre-spike months (Jan-Aug). As things stand, we might see another month of more than 2,000+ drones reported. 0111
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 16/12/2024Claimed to be DPRK soldiers after a failed offensive in Kursk this weekend. As always, Russia is huge and has many ethnic groups living in the country, especially in the east. That being said, this is probably the best example we have of potential DPRK on the front so far. 0261
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 09/12/2024This morning, a car belonging to the head of the Olenivka prison where more than 50 Ukrainian PoWs were massacred was blown up in Donetsk resulting in his death. Location: 47.999570, 37.798891 t.me/rian_ru/272272 411319

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Proud of my colleagues on Eyes on Russia (especially Adam not yet on BlueSky) for helping to bring attention to this "human safari" in Kherson.

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 26/11/2024With last nights record Russian Shahed/Geran drone attack on Ukraine, the Ukrainian Air Force have now reported more than 2,100 drones launched over the month to date. The numbers are increasing on a monthly basis and are now being accompanied by attacks on power infrastructure. 1384
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 26/11/2024"Yes Elon you should scrap the wasteful F-35 program and invest in epic doge drones instead 🤣🤣🤣" 1426
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 26/11/2024Are drones going to play a larger part in any conventional conflict going forward? Yes. Are they going to replace the need for manned aircraft? Absolutely not. 2161
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 26/11/2024The F-35 discourse coming from Elon and his fanboys is physically painful to read. Every time they see a video of a Chinese display of drones they start dooming. China is massively investing in modern jet aircraft and naval vessels, maybe he should tell them they're wrong. 5586
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 22/11/2024The Russian Ruble is at it's lowest rate to the dollar since the month following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. There has been a steady (and now rapid) decline since June 2022. 0151
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 21/11/2024The Russia message of using an ICBM is clear, "this could have had nukes on it but it didn't". In my opinion, however, the threat is completely pointless. Nobody believes that Russia is going to use a nuclear weapon against Ukraine. 2110
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 21/11/2024For the 1st time in 85 days, the Ukr Air Force reported 0 'Shahed' drones fired at Ukraine overnight. They did, however, claim that Russia fired an ICBM (Interncontinental ballistic missile). This would be the 1st time that this has been used since the full-scale invasion. 1160
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Whilst the Storm Shadow strikes on Kursk are an issue for Russia, what is also concerning is that Ukrainian recon drones can apparently loiter quite freely over the target without being intercepted by Russian Air Defence. This is over 40Km inside Russia on a very active front. 1243
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 20/11/2024Ukraine's use of British/French Storm Shadow/Scalp-EG cruise missiles in Russia immediately after Russia re-wrote their nuclear doctrine is a very clear message to the Kremlin. The bluff has been called. 1569
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 20/11/2024This is an unusual statement, Kyiv has been targeted by large missile attacks on several occassions since 2022, why say this now? Russia has also been increasing the number of drones launched in last months, likely an attempt to deplete AD stocks, this may be unrelated to ATACMS. 3170
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 19/11/2024The invasion has further modernised the Ukrainian military and pushed the population even further to the west with a hatred for Russia that will last for generations. Russia has created the very enemy they insisted already existed. 0283
kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Today marks 1,000 days of Russia's full-scale invasion. Hundreds of thousands dead, cities and towns in ruins and no end in sight. What has Russia gained? Two more members of NATO, the decimation of vehicle stocks & reliance on Iran & North Korea, all for a land bridge to Crimea. 2409

kylejglen.bsky.social @kylejglen.bsky.social · 18/11/2024Russia suffered a genuine existential crisis with the collapse of the USSR, a collapse brought about in no small part because of the actions of the US and allies. This does not even register compared to the dozens of close calls between the US and USSR during the cold war. 1100
