Quote: "[We should be ready] for a greater intensity of drone attacks.

In my opinion, Russia will now use drones many times more than missiles.

We are talking about Shahed drones, as well as FPV drones and Lancets on the front line.

Of course, they (the Russians) are stockpiling missiles, the intelligence reports this on a regular basis. I think [missile attacks] will happen, but in what quantity?...".

Why it is important: The spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force repeatedly emphasised the treachery of the Russians and the impossibility of clearly predicting its actions. The Russian Federation continues to produce both missiles and drones.
