"Resources are coming to an end": the expert explained why the Russian Federation attacks Ukraine UAV at night

According to the expert, there is now a missile shortage in Russia, so she began to use Iranian UAVs more actively. The attacks will continue until the new party is over. Former Chief of the press service of the General Staff of the Armed Forces Colonel Vladislav Seleznev stated that the Russian Federation was attacking Ukraine with Iranian Droam-Kamikadze Shahd-136 at night, because the command believes that it is so easy to bypass the Ukrainian air defense. RBC-Ukraine writes about it.

"This is due to the fact that in adverse weather conditions and limited visibility conditions, and it is clear that the sky is not visually visually visually. The Russians believe that it is so better to bypass the Ukrainian air defense," he said. According to him, drones are launched along the Dnieper line. The expert also stated that Russia now has a shortage of missiles that it can fire Ukrainian cities. Therefore, the Russians began to use drones more actively.

Iran is expected to transfer about 300 UAVs to Russia. In addition, Seleznyov suggested that the attacks of Droam-Kamikadze would continue until a new UAV party is over in the Russian Federation. It is not yet known how many drones she left. "But given the fact that large -scale attacks in the last week, it seems that their resources are coming to an end," the expert said.

On the other hand, as Seleznyov noted, Russia ordered 1700 drones from Iran, but it is unclear how many of them have already produced. Iranian UAVS Shahd-136 were first introduced in 2020. Russia uses them by the name "Geran-2". Drones-Kamikadze are designed for mass use by one or a group of purposes. Earlier, Focus wrote that analysts with ISW reported that the Russian Federation had received a new party of Dronov-Kamikadze from Iran.
