that was a bit of a trend with the Arabs (and I guess Persians), they got Soviet weapons which are effective on paper but didn't bother actually listening to how they were supposed to use them
I remember reading one of the big reasons the Syrians ate israeli air power was because even though they had then-modern SAMs they treated BUKs and the like as static defences and didn't move them or use decoys for months at a time, as well as stationing them in valleys rather than on higher elevation where the radars were more effective because it was easier to dig latrines there

I think it's mostly just for surveillance; US has claimed in the past that they're feeding shipping information to the Houthis.
Iran's navy has always been centred around small attack craft with big missiles so I don't really know what their doctrine is with the more traditional ships

those are usually alert locations considering the HAM BROS can't really confirm hits and israel generally won't
all in all the actual hits are usual in single digits (given a rocket flying over multiple areas will set all of them off, and the Iron Dome will take care of at least some of them), but what's really amusing about it is they keep getting launched from areas that the IDF claims it's cleared.

Yemen's like a constant state of organised chimpout, like it or not it's impressive

the j'ews have destroyed around 300,000 of 400,000 homes in Gaza. as a result there's not really much left to bomb so they've moved their aerial efforts to the northern border with Lebanon

initially Russia launched a huge wave of missile strikes at power infrastructure, workshops for tanks and armored vehicles, weapons stockpiles etc, all across the country. reports of damage are unclear because it's illegal to record strikes or their aftermath and the SBU pursue people aggressively.
in response, the AFU launched a salvo of MLRS at Belgorod, killing 24 and injuring around 100.
Russia's continued and increased the strikes to the point where air raid sirens across Ukraine have been going off for 72 hours straight. I don't think there have been strikes like this since Surovikin made his presence known

rufus should work fine so long as you put the settings in correctly, ie. MBR boot, BIOS boot, FAT16 filesystem
the options for windows/lunix distros and stuff are just there for convenience. last time I was making boot images rufus was the only thing for windows that would reliably write the entire image sector-by-sector (like lunix dd); most tools will create a default Windows boot configuration in the partition header and then copy the files over rather that copying the actual partition header from the image
