It is necessary to analyze the situation that is observed with drones near the borders of Russia, said President Vladimir Putin at a meeting on defense topics. He is quoted by RIA News…
The head of state noted that the Russian military has learned how to effectively repel attacks using drones. “We know very well how she [беспилотная авиация] has proven itself in armed conflicts in recent years, how effective and how dangerous it can be for us, bearing in mind what we saw in Syria – terrorist attacks using unmanned aerial vehicles, ”he explained.
Putin also clarified that over two thousand drones are currently in service with the Russian army.
On October 26, the Ukrainian Armed Forces used the Turkish Bayraktar drone for the first time in battle. The self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) reported that no casualties or damage to civilian objects were recorded. Russia called the situation in Donbass alarming.
