The enemy continues to systematically produce drones and will intensify UAV attacks on Ukraine, although drone strikes have been less massive recently due to the need to reorient and redistribute resources.

The enemy continues to produce drones on an ongoing basis and will intensify UAV attacks. This was reported by the head of the press center of the Defense Forces of Southern Ukraine Natalia Humeniuk during a telethon on Tuesday, UNN reports

They collect (UAVs - ed.) all the time. They have production facilities, and they even boast that they do it on their own territory, marking the drones we find with the characteristic letters of the Russian alphabet

- Humeniuk said. 

According to her, the enemy is accumulating drones systematically. And the fact that the drone attacks we have seen in recent nights are less massive may indicate the need to reorient, redistribute the property obtained and tighten resources. 

And the attacks will continue to intensify. We understand that they will be quite regular, virtually every night the enemy attacks

- emphasized Humeniuk.

The head of the press center also said that on the night of April 2, Russians also carried out a drone attack in Dnipropetrovs'k and Kirovohrad regions. 

"We managed to destroy three drones in our area of responsibility in the south of Dnipropetrovs'k region. Unfortunately, a critical infrastructure facility in Kirovohrad region was hit, but fortunately, no people were injured.

Oleksandr Ruvin, Director of the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise, said earlier that Shaheed 136 unmanned aerial vehicles are used to strike Ukraine, with parts and fragments marked with the "Y" series, a transitional version of the weapon that was probably assembled in Russia.

According to him, foreign-made components were found in these drones, and Russians began to leave signatures on the inside of the UAV's body.

"The Russians' "innovation" was the signatures on the elements of the Shaheed 136. Literally, we can assume that this is a kind of report from the person responsible for preparing the assembly of a particular part of the drone. The "packers" leave their "autographs" on the inside of the drone's body. We sincerely hope that such a "modern" technology will eventually help to identify and bring Russian criminals to justice faster," said Oleksandr Ruvin.
