Just how much damage did Ukraine do in its ‘Spiderweb’ drone attack on Russia?

With the help of military experts, NBC News has analyzed satellite images taken by independent companies such as Planet Labs and Maxar, and determined that at least 10 planes were destroyed.

That concurs with an assessment by NATO.

The Western alliance agrees with Ukraine that around 40 aircraft were damaged, but says that only “10 to 13 aircraft were completely destroyed,” according to a senior NATO official, speaking on condition of anonymity to journalists at the margins of a Thursday meeting of defense ministers in Brussels.

Poem: The Dream of Reason

The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters by Francisco Goya.

Night spills ink across the fractured mind,
where echoes rise, unshaped and nameless.
Silence bends, brittle beneath its weight,
shadows pulse with restless hunger.

Thoughts unravel, thin as candle smoke,
drifting where the fevered wind calls.
A hush lingers at the edge of knowing,
a murmur swallowed before it takes shape.

Wake, before the monsters take your name.
Sleep, and they will teach you how to fly.
