Russians “hide” tankers from Ukrainian drones

Oil tankers in the Novorossiysk-Tuapse area have “moved” to the shore due to the work of electronic warfare.

This was reported by the head of the project of the Institute for Black Sea Strategic Studies, Andriy Klymenko.

According to him, as a result of the attack by good Ukrainian drones from the sea and air, all oil tankers in the Novorossiysk-Tuapse area decided to hide on the shore – in the mountain forests of the Markoth Range of the Caucasus Mountains.

“This is the effect of electronic warfare in the conditions of a drone attack, the coordinates of the vessels, or rather their display in maritime services, are artificially changed so that a drone does not fly over them,” the expert said.

In particular, he noted the speech of the President of Ukraine during the session of the UN General Assembly, which took place on September 24.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that stopping this war now – and with it the global arms race – is cheaper than building underground kindergartens or huge bunkers for critical infrastructure later.

“Stopping Putin now is cheaper than trying to protect every port and every ship from terrorists with naval drones. Stopping Russia now is cheaper than guessing who will be the first to create a simple drone with a nuclear warhead,” the head of state emphasized.

We will remind, the EU recently introduced the 19th package of sanctions: the restrictions also apply to the Russian “shadow fleet”.
