Ukrainian forces are said to be using heavy multirotor drones as carriers for additional fiber-optic FPV drones. According to the Russian information circulating, the carrier drone can land after reaching a designated position, while the FPV drone it transports is equipped with its own fiber-optic spool. The reported cable length is up to 60 kilometers (37 miles) per drone. The setup would combine two drone systems operating with separate fiber-optic communication links. The footage currently circulating may be older and appears to show a setup that has been observed before. Further details have not been independently verified.

DLEPS arrests Kyauktaw man accused of funding ARSA DMG Newsroom 19 October 2026, Kyauktaw A Muslim man from Kyauktaw Township in Arakan State has been arrested by the Department of Law Enforcement and Public Security (DLEPS) under the United League of Arakan (ULA) for allegedly providing medical supplies, food and financial support to the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (ARSA), according to official sources. A DLEPS statement released on October 18 identified the man as 40-year-old Hamidu Singh from Lower Paikthel Village in Kyauktaw Township. DLEPS arrested him on September 30. He is being prosecuted under Sections 50(a), 50(y) and 52(a) of the Counterterrorism Law. According to the investigation, Hamidu Singh formed a network of overseas Muslim activists while working in Malaysia in 2015 to supply medicine, food and funds to Muslim armed groups based in Bangladesh. ARSA is allied with the military junta and has carried out surprise attacks on Arakan Army border security outposts and civilian populations in border areas. Based in Bangladesh, ARSA frequently carries out attacks and killings targeting travellers in Rathedaung, Buthidaung and Maungdaw townships in Arakan State.
