Since around mid-July, Russia has changed its tactics for using drones, including periodically deploying Banderol loitering munitions and Shahed-238 jet-powered drones.
Dmytro Pletenchuk, spokesperson for the Ukrainian Navy, said this during a television broadcast, according to Ukrinform.
"They have started using Banderol-type loitering munitions periodically, as well as Shahed-238 drones — these are jet-powered drones," Pletenchuk said.
According to him, Ukrainian forces are working to counter Russian attacks as effectively as possible. This includes the use of Ukrainian Air Force aviation, naval aviation, and army aviation.
"Of course, we are doing everything we can to minimize the impact of these attacks as much as possible. In any case, we will continue working on this," the spokesperson emphasized.
