Director of the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise Oleksandr Ruvin saidthat the enemy continues to try to erase the markings on foreign microelectronics components used in drones, missiles and other weapons used to strike Ukraine.
"Recently, there have been more cases of deliberate erasure of markings on components that generally provide the very possibility of using Russian missiles. In particular, foreign components have been found in the main systems of guided aircraft bombs (KABs).
The enemy hides the manufacturers of the relevant microchips and more technological parts in every possible way. This complicates the identification process, but Ukrainian experts are making every effort to uncover these facts," Ruvin said.
