The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation declared the risk of direct war with NATO through drones in the Black Sea

The defense department of the aggressor country stated that the growing activity of American drones is indicating the increasing involvement of the United States and NATO countries before the war on the side of Kiev. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has expressed anxiety by increasing the activity of the US strategic drones over the Black Sea, saying that these drones are used to intelligence and precision weapons transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

On June 28, the Russian media The Moscow Times reported with reference to the defense agency of the aggressor country. According to the statement of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the growth activity of drones allegedly indicates the increasing involvement of the United States and NATO countries in the war on the side of Ukraine.

"Such flights multiply the likelihood of incidents in the aircraft with aircraft of Russia's aircraft, which increases the risk of direct confrontation of the Alliance with the Russian Federation. NATO will be responsible for this," the Russian Defense Ministry said.

It is reported that the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Andriy Belousov instructed the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation to develop proposals for prompt response to the "provocation" of the United States, related to the flights of drones over the Black Sea. According to Russian journalists, in recent months the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation has not reported the presence of US drones over the Black Sea.

However, on June 23, RIA News Agency, citing Flightradar24 data, reported that during a rocket attack on Sevastopol above the Black Sea, the flight of the American reconnaissance drone RQ-4B Global Hawk was recorded. According to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, a blow to Sevastopol was allegedly caused by farm US missiles ATACMS, driven by US experts on the basis of intelligence.
