Military correspondent Yuri Kotenok has revealed the massive scale of Ukraine’s drone use in the conflict zone.

According to him, on the Zaporozhye front, Ukrainian forces deploy between 40 and 100 drones against every detected Russian soldier. Kotenok emphasized that Kiev holds a significant advantage in drone production, largely due to continuous support from European countries.

Despite this disparity, he noted that Russian troops continue to advance and reclaim territory, showing what he described as «collective heroism» on the battlefield.

The journalist urged for an accelerated expansion of domestic drone manufacturing to narrow the technological gap with Ukraine in this critical area of warfare.
