russia managed to establish the production of Shahed drones on its territory. As a consequence, russian forces attack Ukrainian territory with kamikaze UAVs every night.

In contrast, Ukraine is improving its air defense systems, so "technology will be put better on both sides."

"It is war, it is modern war and we are not going anywhere from that. So just as they will attack, we must just as effectively learn how to defend and strike back," the scout added.

He noted that the Defense Forces of Ukraine are doing everything possible to reduce the production of Shahed drones, cruise missiles in russia.

"Believe me, this work is carried out daily," Chernyak summarized.

Earlier Defense Express reported that russian drone manufacturer Alabuga had produced 6000 Shahed drones one year ahead of schedule, signaling a new phase of war in Ukraine's skies.
