Kyiv was attacked by Shaheed 136 series "Y" drones, probably of Russian origin. Experts find foreign parts and Russian "autographs" inside the drones.

On the night of December 22, the aggressor used Shaheed 136 attack drones to attack Kyiv and Ukraine, parts and fragments of which are marked with the "Y" series - a transitional version of the weapon, which was probably assembled in Russia. This conclusion was reached by experts from Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise. This was announced by Oleksandr Ruvin, Director of Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise, on his tg channel, UNN reports. 

According to him, foreign-made components were found in these drones.

"On the night of the attack, the Institute's specialists were working directly at the scene in Solomianskyi district of the capital, and residential buildings and vehicles in Darnytskyi and Holosiivskyi districts were also damaged. A significant amount of microelectronics from the objects of research on the relevant events is unsuitable for expert analysis due to physical destruction. At the same time, unfortunately, the components traditionally identified are not of Russian origin, namely: USA, Canada and Japan. We will have a full report upon completion of the examination," Ruvin said.

He also said that the Russians had started leaving signatures on the inside of the UAV's hull.

"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," added Oleksandr Ruvin.
