How an anti-drone gun works (video by Russian MoD)

Russia's airborne troops are actively using anti-drone guns during the special military operation in Ukraine. The guns make it possible to “turn off” quadcopter-type UAVs used by Ukrainian forces at a distance of up to two kilometers, which reduces the enemy’s ability to reconnoiter the frontline and adjust their fire.

Danish Parliament to consider civil proposal to legalize euthanasia

The Danish Medical Association (DADL) opposes the initiative, saying that the government should increase investment in palliative care, the report said.

"There are many reasons for this: we do not think that suffering should be managed by killing people; we are afraid of the slippery slope we see in countries where euthanasia has been brought in; and we think one should invest in proper end-of-life palliative care," Klaus Klausen, chairman of the association's ethics committee, was quoted as saying by the media outlet.

The proposal was put forward by a health worker who met patients who wanted to be allowed to die. It will be considered for the first time by the parliament. In 2018, the initiative received 8,386 signatures, and in 2019 - 1,409 signatures.

So far in Europe, euthanasia is allowed in Switzerland, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
