#Russia used a significant number of so-called "distracting drones" designed to probe air defenses rather than destroy targets in its mass attack on #Ukraine on July 31, said Andrii #Yusov, Ukraine's military intelligence (#HUR) spokesperson.

According to Yusov, the "distracting drones" do not have an explosive part. He described these drones as a cheaper version of #Shahed-type attack drones.

Almost 700,000 Russian troops are fighting in #Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir #Putin said on June 14 while speaking at a public event with Russian military personnel.

Andrii #Yusov, the spokesperson of Ukraine's military intelligence agency, responded on Dec. 15 that the true number was around 450,000 and that #Russia is exaggerating the figures to "increase information pressure on our country."

#Magura_V5 naval drones caused $500 million worth of damage to the #Russian #Black_Sea Fleet

#Andriy_Yusov, representative of the Ministry of Defence of #Ukraine, stated this. Adding that #GUR analyzes the consequences after each successful operation, just like the enemy trying to find countermeasures and tactics to protect their ships.

#Yusov noted:
🔹 #Magura drone is being improved. It is about equipment, warhead, and other elements;

Foreign-made weapons were not used during the #UAV attack on targets in #Elabuga and #Nizhnekamsk - #Yusov

A representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defence of #Ukraine, #Andrey_Yusov, confirmed the information that one of the attacked enterprises produced “#shaheeds” (“geraniums”). Adding that the defeat of one of the buildings was the result of #Russian air defence.

"More than 10 attempts of serious assassinations were made against General #Budanov. Unfortunately, as a result of these attempts, Ukrainian intelligence officers have also died in the last 10 years," #Yusov said.

According to a representative of Ukrainian intelligence, the main targets for the Russians are the supreme commander, the president of Ukraine, as well as the heads of the Ukrainian special services.
