A drone model intended for Russia's war effort includes components from a Chinese firm, which had previously said it would not provide equipment in the war in Ukraine, it has been reported. The Defense Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU) agency said it had revealed a new drone that Moscow would use, which is similar to the Iranian-made Shahed-136 drone, although much smaller. It said that almost half of the components come from a single Chinese firm, CUAV Technology, which had announced in October 2022 restrictions on its products to Ukraine and Russia, curbing their military use.
