Ukraine frontline: Soldiers strap DIY bombs to commercial drones | BBC Newsnight
Today, we discuss China’s £14.7bn investment into AI and robotics in the hopes of overtaking the US as the world leader in innovation.
China has two million robots already working in factories, and is investing heavily in the hopes that one day they could bridge gaps in an already sluggish economy. What can these robots do? And what does the future look like for workers? Our China correspondent Laura Bicker has been to some of these factories, and is on the line to debrief.
Plus, the government has announced more details about their housing plans, including where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years. 60% of the new homes would be for social rent, despite Andy Burnham telling The Social Housing Podcast in May he “would actually devote all of it to social housing.”.
Is Andy Burnham delivery what he promised? Adam is joined by Alex and housing correspondent Tarah Welsh.

It has been five years since the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan, as western forces left, imposing their extreme, ultra-conservative interpretation of Islam on millions of people.
Their return to power brought relative peace to the country after two decades of war.
But Afghan women have been erased from public life. Girls are banned from school from the age of 12, and aren’t allowed to go to university.
Public parks are also off limits to women – and they can’t travel abroad without a male companion.

Russia the Joke of the western world…
By the end of 2024 Russia's Military might will have decreased by as much as 70% compared to were its was in 2004 and Nato military strength has nearly doubled in this time.
Exactly what Putin tried so hard to avoid…
Viva Ukraine.

The democratically elected government of Ukraine was overthrown in a coup in 2014.
The Ukraine regime then reneged on the two Minsk agreements that they signed brokered by Germany and France.
This reminds me of Germany breaking the Munich agreements in 1938.

US F-16 fighter shoots down Turkish drone in Syria after warning ignored
The United States shot down this Thursday (5) an armed Turkish drone that was operating near its troops in Syria. The incident marks the first time that the US has shot down a Turkish aircraft, its NATO partner.
Two U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to Reuters, said an F-16 shot down the Turkish drone after the Americans called Turkish military officials several times to warn them they were operating near U.S. ground forces. Authorities said the Turkish drone was believed to be armed.
At the same time, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and a local security source said the US-led coalition shot down a Turkish drone near a base in northeastern Syria.

'I will separate Putin from Xi Jinping': Republican Vivek Ramaswamy's exotic doctrine
Vivek Ramaswamy, American businessman and candidate for the 2024 presidential elections for the Republican Party, has attracted attention in the media due to his unorthodox positions on foreign policy.
Speaking recently at the Nixon Library (California), Ramaswamy explained how he intends – if elected – to carry out one of the most surprising geopolitical maneuvers of the 21st century.
In short, Ramaswamy intends to separate Russia from China and isolate not Moscow, but Beijing! To carry out this maneuver, the Republican pre-candidate intends to use what he called the "spirit of Nixonian realism" (in reference to President Richard Nixon, who governed the United States from 1969 to 1974).
According to Vivek, America is at a time when the bipartisan conviction around opposing Russia represents a bad idea from a geopolitical point of view, given that the real enemy of the United States is China.

I build FPV drones. If I were to defend myself against them, I would attack their video feed. They are using an analog signal, very easy to figure out what channel they are on. Once you do just broadcast your own signal. You can’t hit what you can’t see. If you are monitoring the air wave, you will know the moment they plug-in.
