British intelligence: Russia is running out of kamikaze planes after terrorism
After the bombing terror against the Ukrainians
London: Russia is implementing kamikaze drones
11/24/2022, 12:24 PM (updated)
Weeks ago, Russian forces attacked Ukraine. The British Ministry of Defense reported that there had been no reports of kamikaze drone attacks for days. Russia may have almost exhausted its current stockpile.”
According to British estimates, Russia is increasingly relying on Iranian drones in the war against Ukraine. The Ministry of Defense in London, citing intelligence results, said that Russia wants to compensate for its lack of cruise missiles with this. Since September, Russian forces have used hundreds of missiles against Ukraine, including so-called kamikaze drones. „But this approach has had limited success,” she said. Most of the drones were eliminated by the Ukrainian air defense.
The British ministry said that the main targets of the drone attacks were tactical military targets and the Ukrainian electricity grid. Recently, however, Russian leaders have demanded that Iranian drones target medical facilities and attack them with guided missiles.
However, no further attacks by kamikaze drones have been reported for a few days, she said in London. Russia may have nearly depleted its existing stockpile, but it may be scrambling to resupply.
Perhaps it will be easier for Russia to buy new drones abroad than to produce new cruise missiles, according to London sources. The British Ministry of Defense published daily information on the course of the war since the beginning of the war of Russian aggression against Ukraine at the end of last February, citing intelligence information.
Ukraine’s Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov previously published an overview of Russia’s alleged remaining missile arsenal. Accordingly, 829 surface-to-surface Iskander missiles were launched, more than four-fifths of the stock. And they say that in the case of the Ch-101 and Ch-555 air-to-surface missiles, half of the arsenal is still there.

Attack on the Crimean Bridge – Russia may have outdone the plastic film
He presses
Russia suspects a complex plan behind the attack on the Crimean bridge in 2022. Kiev confirms involvement – are more attacks planned?
KERCH – Ukraine repeatedly resorts to unconventional means in its defensive battle against Russian leader Vladimir Putin’s army – perhaps also due to a persistent ammunition shortage. next to 3D printed bombsAs with those used in Ukraine’s war last year, the Crimean Bridge is also said to have been destroyed using an explosive device, the Ukrainian online newspaper reported. Ukrainian Pravda.
The strategically important Kerch Bridge, which connects the Russian mainland to the annexed Crimean peninsula, has been attacked several times by the Ukrainian army. It is now said that an explosive attack has been detected on October 8, 2022 and reveals a complex plan. The explosive device that caused extensive damage to the bridge appears to have been hidden among several rolls of plastic wrap – and had traveled a long time ago.
Traveling for more than two months – the explosive device remained undetected by Russia
The homemade explosive device was said to have relied on solid rocket fuel, according to the Russian newspaper Kommersant Citing reported investigative materials. Even more surprising than the explosive device itself is how it got to the Qurum Bridge in the first place. Hidden among 22 pallets of polyethylene film, it is said to have initially arrived in Georgia from the Ukrainian city of Odessa. From there it was transported to Armenia, where the shipment was cleared through customs. The accompanying documents have been replaced in the meantime.
The pallets were then delivered on a truck across the Georgian-Russian border to Armavir in Russia’s Krasnodar region, Russian investigations showed. The explosive device spent the rest of the journey in a Russian truck, the driver of which is said to have known nothing about the plans.
According to Russian authorities, Ukrainian backers chose this complicated route for a very specific purpose. This was an attempt to distract attention from the actual goods – and it is clearly a successful tactic.
Ukraine waited for the right time, as an explosive device was detonated on the Crimean GPS bridge.
Russia believes Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky ordered the Ukrainian secret service to carry out the attack on the Kerch Bridge, according to reports. Newsweek. He equipped the explosive device with a GPS system, causing the bomb to explode in a pre-determined section of the bridge. This information cannot currently be independently verified.
However, the attack did not fail to have its effect: using an explosive force of about 10 tons of TNT, large parts of the bridge were severely damaged. Two bridges collapsed as a result of the explosion, and 17 cargo tanker cars loaded with fuel were damaged. as Daily news It was reported that at least three people died in the explosion.
Military bloggers fear further attacks by Ukraine on the Crimean Bridge
Kiev is said to be upon request Newsweek Claims responsibility for the attack on the Kerch Bridge. It is assumed in Russia that Ukraine is planning more such measures. The Ryapar channel, which is said to be linked to the Russian Defense Ministry, expressed similar concerns on Telegram last week.
Accordingly, Ukraine used American decoy missiles to locate Russian air defense systems and radars. The channel suspects that this is preparation for another attack on the strategically important bridge. This may happen before Putin is officially inaugurated as Russian president on May 7.
