It's not like there was just a stack of $16,000 sitting out there in the minefield. There was a tool sitting out there that they could be using to kill Russians and save Ukrainians. A stack of $16,000 is worthless out there on the battlefield, but having that drone could mean everything. So I understand taking risks like this.
