🕯️ On 14 September 1911, Russian Prime Minister Pyotr Stolypin was fatally wounded at the Kiev City Theatre.

Stolypin was accompanying Nicholas II during celebrations marking the unveiling of a monument to Emperor Alexander II.

During the second interval of The Tale of Tsar Saltan, a young man approached Stolypin and fired twice at point-blank range with a Browning pistol. One bullet struck his arm, the other his abdomen, damaging his liver. The shooting took place in full view of the Tsar and his daughters.

According to eyewitnesses, Stolypin crossed himself towards the Emperor and said:

“I am happy to die for the Tsar.”

The attacker, Socialist Revolutionary Dmitry Bogrov, was seized while trying to escape.

Stolypin died four days later.

🔓 Secret Berlin Senate documents have revealed major gaps in the city’s airport drone defences.

Berlin authorities reportedly admitted as early as 2025 that they could not reliably protect high-priority flights from drones.

During a visit by Volodymyr Zelensky, one UAV reportedly took off just 400 metres from where his aircraft was parked. According to leaked documents stolen in a cyberattack on the Berlin Senate and later published on the dark web, aviation authorities recorded 50 drone flights during the visit — 10 inside a restricted zone and four directly near the airport.

The documents also described existing security measures as inadequate. Over just 19 days in summer 2025, authorities logged more than 2,000 DJI drone flights within 30 km of the airport.

One confidential aviation document warned that a drone could “deliver dangerous objects into the security zone at any time.”

📰 The Financial Times writes that Russia’s new Geran-4 and Geran-5 jet-powered drones have changed the nature of the air war over Ukraine.

Kiev had reportedly expected Russia to rely mainly on the slower Geran-3, while the newer jet-powered models came as a surprise to Ukrainian officials and manufacturers. Ukraine’s air defences are now being forced to adapt, and that process is still ongoing.

The Geran-5 can reportedly reach speeds of up to 600 km/h and fly for around 1,000 km, making it resemble a cruise missile.

Another feature of the new drones is greater automation: once a target is detected and locked, the UAV can reportedly carry out the attack automatically.
