War in Ukraine: "Russia is increasingly using jet-powered drones"

Now28 August 2026 at 20:43

Major-General Isidro Morais Pereira warned that Russia is significantly increasing the use of jet-powered drones in the context of the war in Ukraine. This evolution represents a tactical shift in how Moscow conducts its air attacks against Ukrainian territory.

The military analyst also commented on the eventual resumption of diplomatic talks between the parties, speculated for September. This possible return to negotiations comes at a time of great tension between Russia and the Western countries that support Ukraine.

Morais Pereira also addressed the hardening of threats from Moscow regarding the transfer of British military technology to Ukrainian soil. The United Kingdom has been one of the main suppliers of military equipment to Ukraine, which has provoked hostile reactions from Russia.
