According to British intelligence, the aggressor country of the Russian Federation began to actively use Iranian Mohajer-6 drones over the Black Sea in order to protect its ships.
Russia uses Iranian drones to prevent attacks on its ships
The Ministry of Defense of Great Britain draws attention to the fact that Mohajer-6 was repeatedly spotted over the Black Sea and Kremenchuk in the Poltava region.
Mohajer-6 is a system for reconnaissance, surveillance, and target detection, but it can also be used for air strikes using free-fall guided munitions.
According to foreign intelligence, the fact that the aggressor country continues to keep these systems in its occupied Crimea points to an obvious fact: the Russian invaders are currently doing everything possible to identify threats to their ports and ships after Ukraine's recent successes.
There is a realistic possibility its mission also includes supporting Russian targeting process process on the southwestern Ukrainian coastline, emphasises the UK MOD statement.
According to the latest data, Ukrainian soldiers were able to destroy at least one Mohajer-6.
This happened back in September 2022 over the Black Sea.
In addition, it is quite possible that the aggressor country accidentally shot down such a drone over Crimea on June 6, 2023.
Zelenskyy commented on AFU's new successes
Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy recently stated there are no longer safe harbours for Russian invaders in the Black Sea, and there will be no safety in Ukrainian airspace.
Today, I want to thank all our soldiers and all the units that restore security and control in the Ukrainian skies and the Black Sea. Ukraine proved what we are and what our power is capable of.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy
President of Ukraine
According to the head of state, this confirms the large number of destroyed aircraft of the occupation army of the Russian Federation and the ability of the Ukrainian military to strike at the Black Sea Fleet.
