The Russian army has increased the number of drone attacks on Zaporizhzhia and communities in the region. Air defense forces are not always able to shoot down UAVs because the enemy is constantly improving them.
This was stated during a live broadcast on Facebook by Ivan Fedorov, head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, according to Ukrinform.
“The enemy is effectively improving its drones: raising them higher so that machine guns cannot reach them, or increasing their speed. This reduces the effectiveness of the weapons we have,” he said.
At the same time, Fedorov added that at least six interceptor drones are currently being tested in the region, which have already shown initial results in destroying enemy targets.
“The next few months will bring real results in the systematic fight against Shaheds with new means,” Fedorov added.
Earlier it was reported that one of the BraveOne experimental training grounds was created in the Zaporizhzhia region, and interceptor drone models are currently being tested there.
