Ukraine's Resurgent TB-2 Drones Pose Threat to Russia.
Ukrainian armed forces' Bayraktar TB-2 drones have reappeared in southern Ukraine, striking a Russian patrol boat and supply truck in occupied territory. This suggests that Ukraine has rebuilt its TB-2 force after Russian air-defenses severely damaged it. The reappearance of the TB-2 drones indicates the degradation of Russian air-defenses in southern Ukraine as Ukraine's counteroffensive progresses. The TB-2 drones were effective in targeting Russian air-defenses, tanks, and supply trucks during the earlier stages of the conflict. The renewed use of TB-2 drones suggests that Russian air-defenses in the south are under pressure, posing a threat to Russian forces.
