Ukraine is preparing to launch a “devastating” operation on Russia during the winter months, a leading member of the country’s military said.<\/p>\n
During the colder months of 2022, the war in Ukraine saw a slowdown, with fewer clashes and offensives from both sides.<\/p>\n
But this year will be different, Brigadier General Serhiy Baranov, the chief of the military unit overseeing drone operations, has pledged, as he said Kyiv intends to use unmanned vehicles to inflict damage on its enemy when the terrain conditions won’t allow ground troops to fight.<\/p>\n
The official told the Independent: “We intend to capitalise on the experience we have gained over the previous years and use drones to inflict a devastating effect on the Russians when the fighting will be much more static [this winter].<\/p>\n
“We are confident that we have some of the best and most experienced drone pilots in the world.”<\/p>\n
