The enemy has resumed attacks using Iranian-made Shahed kamikaze drones and this shows that the cold weather does not affect their operation.

Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force Command, said this on Ukraine’s television, Ukrinform reports.

“The enemy resumed attacks using Shahed-136/131 kamikaze drones for the first time in three weeks. We see that they were used last night, and the frost does not affect their operation. We must be ready for these challenges too," he said.

He said he did not know whether these were drones from the first batch or whether the second batch of Iranian drones has already arrived in Russia.

Earlier reports said that the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed 14 Shahed unmanned aerial vehicles last night.
