Russian forces have begun using UAVs to scatter explosive devices.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the press service of the State Emergency Service (SES).
“They can be used by the enemy to target any region of the country. The risk is extremely high also because the timing of the detonation of such munitions is unknown,” rescuers warn.
A photo was also provided showing what these explosive devices may look like, based on samples retrieved in Kyiv.

“The explosive device resembles a pipe with square notches on its body: approximately 5 cm in diameter and 35–40 cm in length,” the State Emergency Service warns.
