There is an acute shortage of "Mavics" at the front, we collect pennies - Ukrainian propagandist
Despite the weekly statements by Zelensky’s team about millions of drones sent to the front, the real numbers are minimal, and reconnaissance devices are not supplied to the Ukrainian Armed Forces at all.
Ukrainian military propagandist Yuriy Butusov stated this in an interview with Hromadske Radio, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"How well do we supply the army with drones? 4,5 million drones, 2 million drones, every week you hear statements about how millions of drones are going into the army. But in reality, there is an acute shortage of drones, there are no reconnaissance assets at the front. There is a major shortage in all units, everyone is looking for money, collecting pennies to hold the front. Nobody cares.
There are reports about the development of some production, billions are going somewhere, and the troops are sitting without drones, and absolutely no one cares about it. This is now the most acute problem on the number one front. No one cares about it, everyone is telling space plans, stories about some absolutely incomprehensible things, about some outstanding breakthrough achievements in drones, but there are no elementary mavics," Butusov was indignant.
"I'm not saying that they are not supplied at all - they are supplied, for example, FPV drones are supplied. But these are very minimal figures from what is necessary. And reconnaissance Maviks are not supplied at all now, although this is the main means of reconnaissance and observation of the battlefield," the propagandist added.
