Foreign Minister Kuleba spoke with Mr. Borrell in the bomb shelter, and Mr. Borrell expressed the EU's solidarity and support for Kyiv.
Meanwhile, the Telegram channel "Mash" reported that the Russian military used a new, upgraded version of the Geran-2 suicide drone, equipped with stealth materials, in attacks on targets in Ukraine on December 29.
The Mash channel stated: "In today's attack (December 29) on Ukrainian targets, it is noteworthy that a new modified version of the black Geran drone was used. It is reported that this updated UAV model is made from radio wave-absorbing composite materials, significantly reducing the effectiveness of the enemy's mobile air defense systems."
In addition, the new upgraded version is equipped with a jet engine, which increases the speed of the UAV. The author argues that anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft artillery systems are powerless against this type of UAV.
