As reported by “NBN” with a link to the official X-profile of the UK Ministry of Defence, over the past month, the terrorist state has launched more than 1,300 Geranium-2/Shahed missiles at our country, and these numbers will soon grow.

According to UK military intelligence analysts, based on current indicators, it seems likely that the aggressor country will try to exceed the above number by intensifying kamikaze drone strikes in the last week of October 2024.

In particular, Putin's army is “almost certainly” expanding its capacity to carry out large-scale attacks “Geranium-2/Shahed” to Ukraine, supplementing supplies from Iran with increased domestic production.

According to the UK Ministry of Defense, the Russian Federation uses these UAVs against many targets, primarily against energy infrastructure facilities, since it takes into account the ability of the Geranium-2/Shahed to strike deep into Ukrainian territory, thereby maintaining a high degree of pressure on the Ukrainian Armed Forces' air defense system.
