Well howdy there, internet people. It's Bell again.

So today, we're going to talk about Russian drones over U.S. nukes in Europe.

A report from the International Institute of Strategic Studies suggests that Russia has been running a drone reconnaissance campaign all over Europe,

including over some of the most sensitive sites the U.S. has over there.

But before we call the troops out in a hurry, let's go over the facts we have on hand from the report.

There are 144 suspected drone sightings across Europe.

They include flights in Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK.

The first flights noted were over non-military targets in August of 2024.

Then there were some more over non-military sites in August of 2024. Then there were some more over non-military sites in

October of 2024. Then something must have happened in November of 2024, because they quickly

escalated and started happening over military sites. I know, I know.

Logic would say the Russians were taking advantage of the transition period

from Biden to Trump to start surveilling military sites.

But that can't be it,

because the rate of suspected incursions of military sites continued long after the transition.

In fact, the flights intruding on military bases reached their peak in November of 2025.

That's a whole year after Trump was elected.

And we all know how much Putin respects Trump. So that can't be it.

It's not like Putin increased the flights because Trump is easy to play and manage.

I mean, they're good friends and get along so well. Trump even loosened the sanctions on Russia's shadow fleet for a while because of the war in Iran.

So, we know that's not it.

So how did Russia get the drones into the areas?
