Two U.S. Officials Injured in Eswatini Shooting — 3dTwo U.S. government officials were accidentally shot and injured by Eswatini's defence force during an anti-smuggling operation, with investigations ongoing and diplomatic coordination underway between the two countries. Eswatini says its longstanding relationship with Washington remains in focus, noting past cooperation on deportations as it reviews the incident.

Nicole Hardy Investigations will help, but incidents like this make me wonder if joint operations need stricter rules of engagement from the start.

Mandalay Airport Closed for Two Days After Six Drones Attack — Sep 11, 2026Myanmar's Mandalay airport was shut for two days after six suicide drone attacks on Sept 10, disrupting flights but causing no casualties, with reopening planned around Sept 13. The military-backed government blamed pro-democracy People's Defence Forces for the attack, while security forces intercepted the drones and neutralized explosives, underscoring the ongoing civil conflict surrounding the coup.

US-Iran Clashes Escalate as UAE Intercepts Drone — Aug 31, 2026UAE defence authorities said its air force intercepted a drone approaching from Iran over the country’s territorial waters, with air defences remaining on high alert. Iranian military statements meanwhile claimed retaliatory strikes against US bases in the region and vowed to safeguard security around the Strait of Hormuz, signaling escalating regional tensions.

US military downs over 300 border drones without saying where — Sep 4, 2026U.S. forces have downed well over 300 cartel-linked drones along the U.S.-Mexico border in 2026, with more than 100 shot down in August as the Joint Task Force-Southern Border employs lasers and other technologies to counter cross-border threats. Mexico’s defence secretary says the drones are mainly used by migrant-smuggling groups to scout routes where authorities are scarce, while U.S. officials emphasize a broader fight against illicit drone activity tied to crime across the border.

Chris Dalton Lasers taking down drones sounds like sci-fi but I'd rather know the cost and success rate than just a headline number.

Taiwan's defense budget tops NT$1 trillion as China calls it destabilizing — Sep 2, 2026Taiwan plans to exceed NT$1 trillion in defense spending for 2027, signaling the island’s determination to bolster its self-defence and deterrence amid cross-strait tensions. Beijing condemned the move as reckless pro-independence posturing and warned it cannot deter reunification, as Taipei pressed ahead with broader defense and military modernization aims during Armed Forces Day.

Sam Okafor Beijing calling it "destabilizing" is rich coming from the side with the missiles pointed across the strait.
