Ukrenergo: “Shaheds” may have been specially created for infrastructure attacks

In January of this year, a Conflict Armament Research (CAR) field team documented the warhead of an Iranian disposable Shahed-131 UAV.

Iran’s drones could be specifically modified for strikes against energy facilities. This was reported in Ukrenergo.

It was noted that in January of this year, the field team of the organization Conflict Armament Research (CAR) documented the warhead of the Iranian disposable UAV Shahed-131.

“It was established that the warhead is designed to provide multiple effects when hitting a target. In addition to the primary charge, the striker contains secondary charges to cause additional damage to the object of the attack. The researchers concluded that such warheads may be specifically designed for attacks on large targets, such as energy infrastructure. Moreover, the documented warhead is likely designed to cause as much damage as possible to infrastructure in a large radius,” the report said.

Ukrenergo reports that Conflict Armament Research is an investigative organization that documents illegal weapons, ammunition and other property in conflict zones, and also monitors sources of arms supply. This organization has been operating in Ukraine since 2018.

“Russia is quite deliberately trying to destroy Ukraine’s energy infrastructure by using the knowledge of its power engineers to plan strikes and modify weapons delivery. And documenting such improvements should that played a role in holding the aggressor to account,” Ukrenergo said in a statement.

It will be remembered that the 131st Kyiv Terodefense Battalion needs help in purchasing weapons against drones.
