Bias read (Center): The article presents a factual report on a military tactic used in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine without overtly favoring either side. It focuses on the technical aspects of the attack rather than making evaluative judgments or emphasizing one perspective over another.

Why these scores (Factual 85 · Objective 70): The article reports on Russian use of small, unjammable drones to bypass Ukrainian defenses at an electrical substation. Factuality is high as it aligns with cross-source consensus on drone usage in the conflict. Objectivity is lower due to potential bias in framing Russia's actions as 'evading' Ukr
