Russian occupiers are attempting to deceive the Ukrainian Armed Forces by confusing routes and maneuvering strike drones. This was reported to "24 Channel" by Sergey Bratchuk, a representative of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army "South."
"The Russians have intensified their attacks with 'Shaheds.' They are coming from the sea, trying to complicate the routes as much as possible," Bratchuk stated.
He explained that this is not a new tactic; however, the Russian Armed Forces are changing the altitudes from which they launch drones, resulting in the 'Shaheds' flying over the sea before ascending and moving in a different direction.
"Our Air Defense Forces are working very actively. Drones are being destroyed, but unfortunately, debris is hitting infrastructure," Bratchuk noted.
The UDA "South" representative emphasized that during drone attacks, the occupiers are trying to strike the southern part of the Odesa region, particularly targeting port and port-related infrastructure.
Additionally, the enemy is attacking residential buildings, and debris from the 'Shaheds' is landing on agricultural enterprises in the region.
"The enemy is actively waging war against our wheat in both the Odesa and Mykolaiv regions," Bratchuk stressed.
Finally, he added that, in addition to drones, there is a constant threat of ballistic strikes.
Recall that on the night of February 15 to 16, the Russian Armed Forces struck Mykolaiv with 'Shaheds', resulting in damage to civilian and infrastructure facilities in the city.
On February 15, the partisan movement "Atesh" reported that the Russian Armed Forces are destroying their own equipment near Pokrovsk.
