Russia may attack Ukraine with Iranian kamikaze drones for another 2-3 months. The second batch of drones ordered by the aggressor country will be much larger than the first.
Russia received the first batch of kamikaze drones from Iran – 300 pieces. This was stated by Advisor to the Office of the President Alexei Arestovich.
Instead, the second batch will be much larger. Arestovich recalled that President Volodymyr Zelensky had previously reported that Russia had ordered 2,400 more kamikaze drones from Iran.
According to Arestovich, even with the use of 100 drones a day, Russia can actively attack Ukraine for a month. Obviously, there will be breaks between attacks.
2 – 3 months they can “nightmare” us in such a mode as today, running. An unpleasant story, – said the adviser.
He noted that Russia “found the key” to the air defense of Ukraine, forcing us to spend a large number of missiles on drones. Therefore, now we are fundamentally faced with the issue of anti-aircraft artillery.
