Am I missing something here? Why is russia flying drones into Belarusia? Aren't they on the same side?
I assume the cover story is that Russia just needs to pass through Belarusian airspace to get to Ukraine. But yeah, it seems like maybe something else is going on if 3 were shot down... unless the Belarusians incorrectly assessed they were from Ukraine? ๐
There was an article last week about how Ukraine is spoofing GPS signals to the drones and then they turn around and go back to Russia or Belarus. Maybe that's what happened here?
If these are from the spoofing, I hope Ukraine already knows how to counter it in their drones. It would suck if they're susceptible to the same attack and Russia figures out how to do it.
That's totally plausible! Completely forgot about that, if these have been getting launched from Belarus like other shit has been then this might be the case. Nice catch
