YouTube has begun removing channels of the Russian Alabuga drone factory - CCD
Kyiv • UNN
The platform has deleted over 60 videos from the Alabuga Polytech project, where Shahed drones are manufactured. The factory is accused of illegally recruiting youth and foreigners.

YouTube has begun removing videos and channels promoting the Russian drone production plant "Alabuga." This was reported by the National Resistance Center of the SOF of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (NRC), according to UNN.
Details
It is noted that at least 61 videos of the "Alabuga Polytech" project have already been removed from the platform, and the official "Alabuga" channel itself has likely been blocked.
The "Alabuga" Special Economic Zone in Tatarstan is a key part of the Russian war machine. It is here that large-scale production of Shahed/"Geran" type strike drones has been deployed, which the occupiers use almost daily to attack Ukrainian cities, causing deaths and destruction,
They emphasize that in order to scale up the production of weapons of terror, the Kremlin is crossing all boundaries of morality and international law, launching a cynical campaign to recruit youth. In particular, minors are being massively involved in this conveyor belt of death.
"And the recruitment of women from African, Latin American, and Asian countries for drone production bears signs of human trafficking. YouTube's decision is an important step in countering the aggressor's recruitment network," the CCD concludes.
Recall
The streaming platform Twitch blocked the accounts of streamers who broadcasted a Counter-Strike 2 championship from "Alabuga Polytech" and promoted this educational institution.
