Iran unveils advanced ‘Mohajer-10’ drone: Report

 


The Islamic Republic of Iran has unveiled an advanced drone, named "Mohajer-10," with an enhanced flight range and duration, as reported by Iranian state media.

On Tuesday, the authorities in Iran unveiled the new homemade drone with an operational range of 2,000 km and a greater payload that can reach 300 kg. The new drone can fly for up to 24 hours and has double the capacity of the "Mohajer-6" drone. Mohajer-10 UAV fuel capacity is 450 liters. The new drones are capable of carrying ammunition and bombs and are equipped with intelligence systems.

The new drone was unveiled in the presence of Ebrahim Raisi, the President of Iran. Other Iranian officials were also present during the unveiling ceremony. 

In recent years, Iranian military experts have made a broad range of indigenous equipment and drones. Earlier, Iran also manufactured Mohajer-6, a mid-range combat drone with intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities. The drones have the capability of carrying laser-guided munitions.

Earlier, the United States accused the Islamic Republic of Iran of providing Mohajer-6 drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles to Russia to use in its war against Ukraine. According to claims made by the United States and other Western nations, Iranian military troops were stationed in Crimea with drones to assist Russian forces in their war against Ukrainian forces. The West retaliated by imposing sanctions on Iran. However, the Iranian authorities have repeatedly denied such claims.

The United States and other Western nations have given Ukraine top-notch military hardware to help the country amid the conflict. 

In June, the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ebrahim Raisi, rallied against the US sanctions. During his visit to Nicaragua, he said, "The United States wanted to paralyze our people with threats and sanctions, but it hasn't been able to do it."

Exposing the Brotherhood: Why Jordan’s Terror Cell Bust Must Spark a Global Policy Shift

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians. This is not the work of activists or political dissidents—this is terrorism, plain and simple. For too long, the Muslim Brotherhood has operated under a false image of moderation, cleverly navigating between political activism and violent extremism. But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...

UAE Introduces AI-Driven Drones for Crescent Moon Sighting

  For the first time in history, the UAE is employing artificial intelligence-powered drones to sight the crescent moon, signaling the start of Ramadan. This modernized approach blends technology with Islamic tradition, enhancing the reliability of moon sighting methods. Historically, the crescent moon has been identified through naked-eye sightings and advanced astronomical calculations. By incorporating AI-supported drones, the UAE is reinforcing its position as a leader in technological innovation while maintaining deep respect for religious customs. This method is backed by national research centers and astronomical observatories, ensuring precision and credibility in determining the start of Ramadan. Ramadan is a sacred month in Islam, marked by fasting from dawn to dusk. Suhoor, the early morning meal, and Iftar, the evening meal that breaks the fast, hold great importance during this period. The holy month is also a time of increased charitable giving, with many Muslims part...

UK Business Migration to the UAE: An Economic Transformation Set to Triple by 2035

  A significant realignment is underway in the global business landscape. The corridor between the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates is experiencing a dramatic surge in traffic, not of tourists, but of companies, entrepreneurs, and capital. Projections indicate that the number of UK businesses operating in the UAE is on a trajectory to triple by the year 2035. This is not a fleeting trend but a strategic migration fueled by a powerful combination of economic foresight and pragmatic policy. For UK businesses, the appeal is clear and compelling. The UAE offers a starkly contrasting environment to the complexities of the European market post-Brexit. The cornerstone of this appeal is a favourable tax regime, featuring zero percent income tax and a competitive corporate tax structure. This financial efficiency is coupled with groundbreaking reforms that allow for one hundred percent foreign ownership of mainland companies, giving investors full control over their ventures. The...
