On #NAFOday, we present a special big #SquaDrone thread, featuring all the team drones. We'll start with a jab from one of Ukraine's greatest boxers, bought by The Drone Team 2 (we're not sure who fellas had in mind — @Vitaliy_Klychko, @Klitschko, or both)

Big bada boom is so 1997.
Badda jagga bonk is much trendier, although the point is pretty much the same.

This amazing Millenium Falcon comes courtesy of Flight Lieutenant @AurelliaStrass and #NAFOJediforces. Unlike the original, the only things this ship smuggles are explosives for russian invaders. Much like the original one, however, it will serve the light side.

Following the #StarWars subject, here's a Wookie-themed UAV. As Han Solo once said, it's not wise to upset a Wookie. This one's already upset. And now it will return the favor.

While we're at it, here's a tip on how to properly upset a tankie:
1. Ask them any uncomfortable question about soviet history (so, any question…)
2. Watch them have a tantrum
3. If on your land, instead of pointless arguments, launch an FPI drone from above
6/11
Now, back to #StarWars.
We once stated that the #Fellas are modern day Ewoks (sort of) — they look friendly, but, much like Wookies, you don't want to upset them. In large numbers, they can work miracles, such as these
Ewok Attack Squadrones.

In the New Testament, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are conquest, war, famine, and death.
Our Four Drone Riders of the Rage-pocalypse are much nicer, although, it's a matter of perspective. They will bring the same amount of wrath upon unsolicited visitors.
8/11
We remember the times when zombies were just a concept in music videos. Now, brainwashed
z-creatures are on our land, but

They hear a buzzing sound before they make it
They start to freeze
As camera looks them right between the eyes
They're paralyzed
Cause this is Thriller
9/11
These next 2 drones are a result of another #megathread, launched by @NelltheWeaver. The first one is actually called #megathread.
#NAFO #SquaDrone

The second name sounds a bit more intimidating. More real. As if making a promise that it'll actually transcend social media, and fly away to the battlefield. That's exactly what's gonna happen.
We megalike it.
#NAFO #SquaDrone
11/11
We want to finish off the #SquaDrone thread on a wholesome, soup-centric, note. May this drone become a gift, as pleasant as hot borscht on the tables of our defenders, and a nightmare, as devastating as hot borscht spilled on the nether regions of invaders

How to make Oscar-worthy movies? How to cast actors? Which is more important — talent or luck? Michel Hazanavicius, film director and U24 ambassador, answered these questions for students of the Kyiv National I. K. Karpenko-Karyi Theatre, Cinema and Television University.

We were inspired by the story of @BereniceBejo, who won the 2011 César Award as Best Actress in The Artist:
“When Berenice was doing the text, I didn’t really look at her. She called her agent and said ‘He didn’t look at me, he was not interested.’ But I hired her"
"A month after that she asked me about it. I said to her ‘The image is my job. I don’t need your makeup and hair, it’s not the major of my movie. I didn’t need to watch you, I needed to hear you. Life acting doesn't need editing. It is really the last part of the acting”

“My injuries were caused by hatred. But my body was rebuilt by love. And I said: “As a Ukrainian soldier, you will not find greater love than you will find in Ukraine. And you will have the opportunity that I have to have a new life”

War documentarian Giles Duley defines himself as a lucky man. 12 years ago, while filming in Afghanistan, he stepped on a landmine. Giles lost 3 limbs, had 37 surgeries, and was given a very poor medical prognosis. A year and a half later... he returned to work in Afghanistan.
Giles is now a founder of a charitable fund. @Legacy_of_War helps Ukrainians affected by war and raises funds via #UNITED24 for rebuilding efforts. In 2022, Giles was elected as the 1st @UN Global Advocate for persons with disabilities in conflict and peacebuilding situations.

U24 ambassador @TimothyDSnyder opposes russian propaganda on a regular basis. He recently spoke at a meeting of the @UN Security Council, convened by moscow to discuss "russophobia," and explained how russia uses this term to justify its genocide against the Ukrainian people👇🏽
📌 If you stand in russia with a sign saying "no to war," you will be arrested and very likely imprisoned. If you stand in Ukraine with a sign that says "no to war," regardless of what language it is in, nothing will happen to you.
📌 The claim that Ukrainians have to be killed because they have a mental illness known as "russophobia" is bad for Russians, because it educates them in genocide.

👨‍🚀@StationCDRKelly is not only a record-breaking astronaut, but also a former professional F-14 fighter-bomber pilot. Before leaving Kyiv, he asked for a meeting with Ukrainian pilots.
We didn't know if it could happen due to missile attack threat. But, everything worked out! ImageImageImageImage
Scott met with Lieutenant General Anatoly Kryvonozhko, Head of Ukraine's Central Air Command, alongside Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter pilots. It was a very warm, friendly and top-secret conversation 😉
They talked about the feats of Ukrainian pilots, their capability to conduct aerial combat against an enemy with superior numbers, how they defended the capital in the first days of the war, and, of course, about the "Ghost of Kyiv." They also discussed F-16 planes, which🇺🇦needs.
