No evidence found of FPV drones dropped from jet Shaheds in Kyiv, says Ukrainian adviser

unian.net (Russian)

Ukrainian presidential adviser Sergei Beskrestnov (Flash) said no evidence has been found over three days to confirm FPV drones being dropped from jet-powered Shahed drones in Kyiv. The claim followed a September 3 report of a possible FPV drone drop in Kyiv Oblast, though Beskrestnov noted it remained unverified. He explained Russians have experimented with attaching two FPV drones to wings for release, previously only on standard Shaheds due to high speeds on jet versions. Similar incidents were recorded a week ago in Konotop, Sumy Oblast. Beskrestnov added the tactic is not mass-used, as it is inefficient and technically complex, yielding few successful strikes.
