    The chances of a drone “losing itself” and “just hitting” something like that are zero. Even if it magically happened somehow, it’s still Russia’s fault for waging war on a neighbor, and they would deserve 100% of the response.

        I just did the numbers for shits and giggles.

        Ukraine is 635,000 square kilometres = 603 billion square metres. The “New Safe” that was hit is roughly 43000 square metres.

        To randomly hit it (not realistic I know, but it gives an interesting results) as I understand it would be just shy of 1 in 15 million.

          But to be fair,Tyou shouldn’t count all of Ukraine’s territory, but the Russian controlled ground and the front line plus maybe 50km or so deep into Ukraine’s territory.

            I did consider that, but many (most maybe?) of the Shaheds would be launched from well behind the front lines so would be traveling over occupied Ukraine was my thinking. I have no idea on the actual stats there.

            To be fair you should count Poland territory too, since apparently drones have been flying and crashing in there too.

      Wait so you mean I’m still on the hook if I launch a bunch of ordinance harmlessly at my neighbor’s porch, but I accidentally hit their child’s bedroom? Well shit.
