Russia has resumed massive launches of Shahed-type attack drones after a short break. According to the head of the National Security and Defense Council's Central Intelligence Center, this is due to a strike on a drone base that disrupted the logistics of Russian operations.

Head of the Center for Countering Disinformation of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Andriy Kovalenko explained the pause in the Russia's launch of Russia's Shahed-type attack drones in Ukraine, UNN reports.
