Ukraine’s president and security chiefs have met to plan ways to counteract Russia’s use of “new types of weapons” after Moscow stepped up attacks in the Odesa region using Iranian combat drones.
The spokesperson for Odesa’s regional administration, Serhiy Bratchuk, told a news briefing that Russia carried out at least five attacks on targets in the region using unmanned Shahed-136 drones in the last few days.
He said that one of the attacks hit an undisclosed military target in the southern region in the early hours of Monday.
