Details

Ihnat commented on whether it is possible to rely on drone and missile flight patterns published on social media to get a general picture of the attack.

Regarding Telegram channels, regarding the schemes they draw. For general awareness, you can... The main requirement is not to harm. The fact that schemes appear is the flight of missiles. After all, on our resources, we inform the population around the clock, and based on these messages, you can draw some schemes or arrows of flight for yourself.

However, he emphasized that it is unacceptable to inform the enemy in real time, especially where the Defense Forces lose location contact with enemy UAVs or missiles.
