The anti-drone nets are being placed along Kharkiv's ring road to reduce the risk of FPV drone attacks, remotely controlled devices that represent a growing threat to vehicles and infrastructure.
The city of Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, is strengthening its defenses against aerial attacks, implementing these physical barriers along the main traffic routes.
At the same time, hospitals in the region are preparing to operate in underground facilities, ensuring the continuity of medical care in case of attacks.
Local authorities point to FPV drones as one of the main current threats, given their low manufacturing cost and ease of remote control.
