After all, the examination needed is not simple, but with the participation of specialists of a wide scale, who will be able to find out what kind of components they are, their origin. According to the examinations, the origin of these drones and the manufacturer of the components will be established," the prosecutor said.
"How did this drone appear in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, why is it called ‘Geran’ and ‘Geran-2’, why is it so similar to the ‘Shahed-131’, ‘Shahed-136’ and ‘Mohajer-6’?”
