Nearly fully intact Iranian suicide drone was found in Dnipro Oblast
Police explosives experts in the Dnipro oblast discovered an almost intact attack UAV, reported the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine on Telegram on Feb. 9.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs noted that the next step is to carefully remove the warhead and destroy it. The UAV itself will be disassembled and examined by experts.
