Controlled drones. They are managed. Therefore, they are changing the route,” he noted.

On September 20, the Ukrainian military destroyed a Shahed-136, labeled by the Russians as “Geran-2”. This kamikaze drone, or the so-called sabotaging or cruising ammunition, can travel up to 2500 kilometers and is usually launched in pairs or even a flock.
