Iran has been firing low-cost drones at targets across the Middle East,
including hotels, oil tankers, and they're changing the way the war is being fought.
I'm Ikra, and on What's in the World,
we're finding out about how the Shahed's drones are being used in this war,
and why they could be a big factor in when this war comes to an end.

It's about what technology is actually doing to your work and your politics, your everyday life.
And all the bizarre ways people are using the internet.

We're beginning with a war in Iran,
a conflict which continues to extend well beyond Iran and whereas so often with wars it's a question of trying to work out whether we can trust what we're being told and a question of trying to know where to look.
There are so many places, so many aspects to this war.
