I mean, they're already pretty much disposable and have been for a while.

Here's a brief piece on drone warfare between rebels and the junta in Myanmar, and its strategic implications:

www.orfonline.org/expert-speak...

Some Myanmar resistance fighters claim the Myanmar military junta is using small drones to release explosives that may contain banned and restricted chemical weapons:

Myanmar's junta reportedly attacked a clinic in the Sagaing region with a "six-propeller" drone on July 10th, killing 1 health care worker and 5 wounded combatants who had been moved there after an earlier attack.

Myanmar military deploys ‘kamikaze drones’ in southern Shan State A Pa-O ethnic armed organisation fighting the junta says that the Myanmar army has been flying drones with bombs attached into targets in Hsihseng Township

Myanmar's military junta appears to be adopting consumer-type drones of its own, reportedly mostly Chinese drones intended for agricultural spraying -

I think @littleflyingrobots.bsky.social has long since been all over this kind of thing.

“The situation at the Rafah crossing adds another layer of complexity and despair. The exorbitant fees demanded by those controlling the crossing—$5,000 USD per adult and $2,500 USD per child—are a stark reminder of the barriers that still stand between our family and safety.”

From @samzaq.bsky.social : “Despite our efforts, the Government of Canada's cap on applications has severely limited our ability to bring our entire family to safety. Out of 36 names submitted, we've only received 18 special codes necessary for the Temporary Resident Visa program applications.”

Help My Family in Gaza Find Safety with Loved Ones, organized by Ossama Zaqqout Ask: In order to get 36 members (including 16 children) of my family… Ossama Zaqqout needs your support for Help My Family in Gaza Find Safety with Loved Ones

New update on my friend Ossama‘s GoFundMe, which will help his family escape Gaza for safety in Canada.

Canada continues to limit visas for people escaping conflict zones, and officials at the Rafah border are price-gouging desperate people.

Every donation helps immensely.
