Oh hello…. A drone reportedly from “Eastern #Iraq” that was intercepted by coalition forces near/on its way to #Erbil.
That drone looks familiar…. 🙃
This design shares more of a resemblance/design characteristics with the ones we’ve seen used in #Yemen / #Saudi, but they all are derived from the #Iran|ian “Shahed-136”
The Iranian variant and the derived Wa’eed which belongs to the #Houthi’s (Yemen has two variants, technically) have a slightly different nose and winglets.
And finally for a thread I wasn’t expecting to write today here is imagery relating back to the Mercer Street incident last year showing the winglet design from the tweet above.
Footage from 4 hours ago in #AbuDhabi, #UAE from Snapchat shows a large plume of smoke rising from the area near the reported attack. Footage was taken from google.com/maps/place/Kop…
Original source.
and we have our line of sight towards ADNOC - Musaffah, #UAE
Multiple initial reports of AA activity in Kermanshah Province, #Iran. Cause currently unknown at this time.
I’m assuming this’ll be another drill if confirmed.
Was there any photos of lightning in that area last night? Looking at the lightning maps it’s *possible* as there was recorded bolts - but they are now archived as 6+ hours so can’t the exact time unless anyone knows another way to look at archived bolts?
