Sputnik presents a gallery showing Russian forces using Orlan-10 drones during the special military operation. What can the Orlan-10 do?
▪️Conduct radio reconnaissance, intercept enemy negotiations, videotape areas where Ukrainian militants are deployed;
▪️ Send SMS messages to mobile operator subscribers with instructions to lay down their arms.
▪️When radio signals are detected and negotiations are intercepted, a drone with video equipment is sent to the specified area, transmits the coordinates of the military infrastructure to artillery units which, in turn, fire at the enemy.

Russia Had No Opportunity Yet to Send Food as Part of Grain Deal, Russian Envoy to UN Says
Russia has not been able to export any food as part of the grain deal yet, as seizures and general licenses issued by the West for Russian goods are a sham and do not allow exporting products, Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzia said in an interview with Sputnik.
"For more than half a year of the Russia-UN memorandum, not a single grain and almost nothing of fertilizers have been sent through this line. And this is despite the demand and need for Russian products, which everyone admits," Nebenzia said.

Will Ukraine Fatigue Among US Lawmakers Bring Kiev Militarization to End?
Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz (Fl) has introduced the Ukraine Fatigue Resolution to Congress arguing that the US should stop arming and funding Kiev and rather persuade warring parties to reach a peace agreement. Ten House Republicans co-sponsored the bill.

Original immigrants to the New World wanted isolation from affairs and wars overseas," explained Professor David Woodard, Clemson University political scientist and former political consultant for Republican lawmakers.
