Magura naval attack drones can operate on any water surface, so their use in the shallow Sea of ​​Azov to destroy enemy vessels cannot be ruled out.

That’s according to Yevheniy Yerin, a defense intelligence spokesman, who spoke on the air of the national telethon.

"Theoretically, Magura can operate on any water surface. I believe we will over time see how well the Sea of ​​Azov waters are protected," Yerin noted.
