Ukraine stands to lose from Russia's drone attacks. The attacks are causing a shortage of diesel, according to Trump, who has called on Ukraine to halt strikes on Russian diesel.

Russia's new jet-powered drones are reportedly outpacing Ukraine's air defences, according to BBC News. This suggests that the conflict is not one-sided, but rather a complex and multifaceted issue.

The use of drone technology by both sides is a significant development in the conflict, and its implications are still being felt.
