The commander of sea-drone operations for Ukraine’s military intelligence agency says more complex strikes against Russian forces are expected next year, after Kyiv’s uncrewed fleet succeeded in curbing the movements of Russia’s once-dominant Black Sea navy.
In an interview with The Associated Press, the head of the specialised maritime drone unit, Group 13, said Ukraine’s attacks have forced Russia to adapt, limiting opportunities for major Black Sea strikes seen earlier in the war.
Today, we’ve likely reached a plateau, said the officer, who is identified only by the call sign 13th under Ukrainian military protocol.
We are effectively limiting the enemy’s movements, but those dramatic, high-profile strikes we saw earlier haven’t happened for quite some time. That’s because the enemy has adapted.
Last month, Ukrainian officials said sea-attack drones were used in strikes against vessels in Russia’s sanctions-evading shadow fleet of oil tankers.
