The Ukrainian Armed Forces tell us what time of day Russia fires missiles and when it releases drones
The Russian army is actively using Iranian Shahed-type drones to strike Ukrainian cities and critical infrastructure.
The Russians' attacks are linked to the time of day. For example, they use air, sea and land-based cruise missiles more during the day, while Iranian drones more often at night, the speaker of the Air Force Command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Yuriy Ignat, said during an information telethon.
Although sometimes they also combine the daytime. At night it is more advantageous to them to launch drones because they are radar visible, but visually there is no reference to them, and it is virtually impossible to shoot them down by small arms - it is machine guns and anti-aircraft guns. So actually this difference. Drones are about from eleven to twelve at night, and missiles more in the daytime
It should be noted that the army RF is actively using Iranian Shahed-type drones to attack Ukrainian towns and critical infrastructure facilities, as well as Mohajer-6 reconnaissance drones
According to Western partners' intelligence, Tehran may also transfer its ballistic missiles to Moscow. Iran became one of Russia's main military allies after its invasion of Ukraine.
