This was reported by Serhii "Flash" Beskrestnov, an expert in electronic warfare and communications systems.
russia used the Gerbera UAV as a launch platform for an FPV drone for the first time. No confirmation has yet been received regarding the operation's outcome. Since the drone has not been found, analyzing it is currently impossible.

It remains unclear whether the FPV drone was used as a strike weapon or for reconnaissance and targeting, and whether this scheme will become widespread or remain a one-off experiment.
Beskrestnov warns that even a single use of this tactic could become threatening if scaled up. That is why it is important to promptly inform the military and civilians about new methods that the enemy may use.
Gerbera is a russian simplified unmanned aerial vehicle. Made from inexpensive materials such as foam, the drone is lightweight and relatively difficult for radars to detect.
Earlier Defense Express reported that Ukraine's Defense Intelligence had revealed component-level breakdown of russian UMPK modules.
