Air Force spokesman Yuriy Ignat claims that the Russians are now using Iranian Shahed attack drones to track down and deplete Ukrainian air defenses.
Previously used in combination with missiles. Now they are depleting air defense, detecting places (its location). The same A 50 radar aircraft takes off when we are combating the Shaheda, it fixes the launch sites from our anti-aircraft missile systems. Thus, they discover and make an algorithm, where we launch from, how we move, etc., – said Ignat.
He clarified that, unlike previous times, Russia launched Iranian drones this night not from the eastern coast of the Sea of Azov, but from the Bryansk region of Russia.
Earlier, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense warned that Russia was changing the tactics of missile strikes.
First, they really learn from their mistakes. Secondly, they are running out of not only high-precision missiles, but also missile weapons in general, ”said Andrey Chernyak, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense.
According to the GUR, Moscow has less than 100 high-precision cruise missiles left, the most commonly used in shelling – Caliber, Kh-101, Kh-555.
Chernyak clarified that there are still thousands of missiles in Russia, but they use much more of them than they produce. And the old missiles in service with Russia either do not reach due to a malfunction, or have a limited radius of destruction.
Also, Ukrainian intelligence emphasizes that Russia has not given up on the idea of destroying the energy system of Ukraine. But along with the energy sector, the enemy wants to destroy the fuel and energy sector in order to stop the supply of petroleum products.
