Image Source : AP Mirage 2000 (Representative Image) Ukrainian forces targeted an airfield with long-range drones in southern Russia, Ukraine’s General Staff claimed on Thursday. The airfield is reportedly used to launch Iran-designed Shahid drones. The development comes as France says it delivered the first batch of Mirage fighter jets to Ukraine.

At times, the drones have successfully reached deep into Russia, hitting oil refineries, weapons stores, and airfields. France confirms the delivery of Mirage to Ukraine The French authorities have claimed that they had delivered the first fighter jets promised to Ukraine by President Emmanuel Macron …

Unpleasant, because of the futility and a resounding failure of the mission humanity set out to complete after Elon Musk took over Twitter (now it’s called X, keep up) a couple of years earlier. Basically, BlueSky has claimed that since the US election results were announced, millions of users have signed up for the platform. That, they first said, took that social media platform’s footprint to about 15 million users. The number, then claimed to be 20 million, a few days ago.. Cue headlines such as “users are fleeing Elon Musk’s X…” and that “X is haemorrhaging users…”. I’ve seen that before. Elon Musk, chief executive officer of SpaceX and Tesla and owner of X.

Assassin’s Creed Mirage Will Not Get DLC, but Protagonist Basim’s Story Can Be Explored Further, Says Director

Published by Webster

Assassin’s Creed Mirage launched in October last year, offering a pared back, back-to-the basics experience reminiscent of older games in the series. The action-adventure title from Ubisoft took players to 9th-century Baghdad, putting them in the shoes of Basim Ibn Ishaq, a street thief who joins the Hidden Ones and rises through the ranks to become a master assassin.
