Moscow threatens to down Tomahawks
4h
A Russian parliamentary defense committee chief warned Russia would shoot down Tomahawk missiles and bomb their launch sites if the United States supplied the weapons to Ukraine.
Putin: launches 1000 nukes
Durbin, negotiating: we will NOT accept this nuke attack… unless Putin averts 10 of them.

Russia escalates warning as Trump considers sale of Tomahawks to Ukraine
The warning is part of a concerted Russian effort to deter President Donald Trump from giving Ukraine access to the missiles, repeating a tactic Moscow has used throughout the war.

Relatedly, I was struck by @massdara.bsky.social's description of all the whiz-bangy things Russia thinks will be possible with drones & AI. It reminds me of the creative thinking I've seen over decades following Russian military writing. In line with Adamsky, most of this stuff never happens. 6/7
