Conflict · UK drones hit RussiaBritish Drones Confirmed Striking Deep Inside Russia for First TimeGeschreven 7 september 2026 om 21:26 UTCKijkenTranscript0:00For the first time, British-made0:01long-range drones built by two British0:03companies are confirmed in use by0:05Ukraine to strike military and0:07industrial targets [music]0:08deep inside mainland Russia. That0:10pattern now reaches far beyond the0:12front. Targets include oil refineries0:14and warehouses belonging to the retailer0:16Wildberries,0:17>> [music]0:17>> repeatedly hit since July, alongside a0:19fuel depot in the Kamensky district of0:21the Rostov region previously linked0:22[music] to a drone containing UK0:24components. That disclosure sits against0:27an April announcement from the United0:28Kingdom Ministry of Defense about0:30supplying tens of thousands of drones,0:32including long-range strike devices,0:34with a transcript figure of 120,000 also0:37recorded. The confirmation has arrived0:39during a severe overnight exchange.0:40[music] At least eight people were0:42killed and 39 injured in Ukraine in0:44Russian missile strikes, including a0:45market in Kyiv and a home in0:47Zaporizhzhia, while hundreds of0:48Ukrainian drones targeted Moscow [music]0:50overnight. Industrial and logistics0:52sites far from the front are now being0:54hit inside mainland Russia,0:55>> [music]0:55>> while neighborhoods in Ukraine are0:57absorbing retaliatory missile fire. A0:59two-way deep strike exchange spanning1:00[music] Moscow, Rostov, Kyiv, and1:02Zaporizhzhia. The shift puts refineries1:04and logistics hubs once [music]1:06considered out of reach inside the1:07strike envelope, changing what is1:08exposed for civilians around those1:10industrial sites. What is still not1:12known is which two companies [music]1:13built the drones, which models and1:15capabilities are in use, how many1:17strikes have occurred and under what1:18authorization, and the extent of damage1:20and casualties at those sites.1:22>> [music]1:22>> That confirmation so far rests on a1:24single well-placed military source and1:26has not been independently corroborated1:28beyond that source and the earlier1:30Russian claim about UK components. For1:32civilians, the consequence is [music]1:33concrete. Warehouses and fuel1:35infrastructure far from the front are1:36now being struck. Ukrainian1:38neighborhoods are taking retaliatory1:39missile fire, and the [music] threshold1:41for British and European involvement has1:42been raised.1:44Like and follow for more stories that1:46matter.Lees het artikelTijdlijn van het verhaalHeyDexDe korte video ↗
