⚡Suspicious drones fly every week over military training grounds and Bundeswehr barracks, where the Ukrainian Army is trained, Bild reports.

⚡Russia & China's Unhackable Quantum Satellite Link:

Scientists in Russia and China have successfully tested a highly encrypted quantum communication system that promises to be virtually unhackable, in a landmark development for quantum technologies.

The scientists were able to span 3,800km between a ground station close to Moscow and another near Urumqi in China’s western Xinjiang region to send two encoded images secured by quantum keys.

Quantum communication – a form of quantum physics-based information transfer that uses cryptography to encode data in single photons – offers a way to transfer information that hackers cannot eavesdrop on.
