Ukraine is reportedly using airborne delivery to deploy kamikaze ground robots as far as 12 miles behind Russian front lines, extending its campaign of unmanned strikes deep into occupied territory. The development highlights how both sides continue to push robotic systems into offensive roles, striking logistics and targets far from the frontline where manned operations are too risky.
- 3USAF receives first robot wingmen for autonomous warfare trials●USAF gets first 'robot wingmen' to begin autonomous warfare trials
The US Air Force has taken delivery of its first robotic wingman aircraft, unmanned jets designed to fly alongside crewed fighters, as it begins trials of autonomous combat capabilities. The drones, often called collaborative combat aircraft, are meant to extend the reach and firepower of manned jets while testing how much decision-making can be handed to onboard software.
- 4Seoul clears way for delivery robots in apartment complexes▼Seoul moves to clear path for robots to deliver, park in apartment complexes
Seoul is moving to remove regulatory obstacles so delivery robots can operate and park inside apartment complexes. The plan would allow autonomous robots to deliver food, parcels and groceries directly to residents' doors in South Korea's high-density housing, where such machines are currently restricted. It signals the city's push to accelerate commercial robotics services in everyday urban life.

Chinese robotics firm AGIBOT marked a production milestone with the delivery of its 20,000th robot, built at its manufacturing facility, to Chimelong during a launch event. The handover underlines the company's scale-up in robotics manufacturing and its growing commercial partnerships, with Chimelong serving as the customer for the milestone unit.
- 7St. Pete City Council explores robot food delivery●Could robots soon deliver food in St. Pete? City Council wants to explore
St. Petersburg's City Council is looking into allowing robots to deliver food on the city's streets, according to the Tampa Bay Times. The idea would put small sidewalk delivery robots to work carrying orders from local restaurants to customers. Council members want the city to explore the concept before any rules or pilot programs are considered.
