Russia "punches" the Odessa area with Shahd Drones: What should be prepared for Ukrainians

Judging by the latest attacks, Russian troops changed tactics and concentrated their blows in the same region. Russia has launched 135 drones in September five days in September, and most of them in the Odessa region. Defense Express analyzed the situation and predicted what Ukrainians expect this fall and winter.

Analysts believe that the Russians launched a large-scale military operation on the night of September 3-then, according to the Ukrainian Air Force command, 25 UAVs Shahd-131 and Shahd-136 were launched. The attacks continued on September 4 (32 drones), September 6 (25 drones), September 7 (33 drones) and September 8 (20 drones). Most drones aimed at the Odessa region, although on September 4, part of them went to Dnipropetrovsk.

Defense Express notes that unbroken UAVs do not always harm the goals chosen by Russia, because some of them are missing, and the couple got into Romania. On the other hand, statistics show quite well air defense efficiency, which is an average of 75%. This is probably why the Russians have been focusing on the attacks of their drones for a long time, hoping to achieve a significant effect.

In the future of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, they can adhere to such tactics by targeting Shahd for one group of objects in the region instead of inattentive and unpredictable attacks throughout the country, as it was in the past autumn and winter season, when the invaders damaged many objects of critical infrastructure and caused mass interruptions in electricity supply.
