The Drone Series: What’s Over the Horizon?

EXPERT PERSPECTIVE Russian authorities say they shot down a Ukrainian drone over the area that serves as headquarters for the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Crimea over the weekend.

The incident follows another incident three weeks ago, in which Reuters is reported that five members of the Russian navy were injured by an explosion in the courtyard of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet in Russian-occupied Sevastopol. The explosive was believed to be carried in by a drone in yet another indicator of how the technology is being leveraged since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
