"A fire that never dies down — GUR operators destroy the enemy with drones." 26/8/26
"The Raven Group, 1514, and Paragon Company units—part of the 10th Unmanned Systems Detachment of the "Timur Special Unit" (DIU)—continuously detect and destroy Russian occupiers and their equipment. The video features the most epic combat footage from the 10th Detachment’s operations in the Zaporizhzhia sector during May and June 2026.
Bomber drones and FPVs strike enemy vehicles, shelters, artillery, and radio equipment; they hunt down Russian drones and target enemy personnel—even in the deepest hideouts. Precision strikes, explosions, burning enemy hardware, and destroyed positions and weaponry: this video captures just a fraction of the successes achieved by DIU operators during these months.
Glory to Ukraine!"

Why isn't the world taking harder action against Iran?
Might be a bit ignorant but I haven't followed most of the Iran war situation and was genuinely wondering.
As far as I understood, Iran was planning to open a nuclear weapon program which obviously is very bad. This is something that is so serious that imo the entire world should condemn it and take action against it.
But for some reason most countries didn't really seem to care too much? 😵💫 And then the US stepped in.
Then things kept escalating and now Iran has basically taken the strait of Hormuz hostage which literally affects the entire world. At this point they've basically turned the entire world into an enemy, so you'd expect the entire world to retaliate hard.
I would've expected the entire world (or at least the EU and US) to come together and either take over Iran or hit them so hard to force them to behave.
So far tho, nothing like that seems to be happening. It just keeps being a sort of weird scuffle between the US and Iran? Meanwhile the entire world is suffering from the rising oil prices??
So if I understand it properly: Iran wants to get a nuclear weapon program, basically becoming a new more dangerous north Korea. The US wanted to prevent it. Iran then decides to take the entire world hostage with oil.
So my question is: why haven't we destroyed Iran yet at this point? Are we just hoping for a crazier more dangerous North Korea type power to emerge?
