Under the influence of electronic warfare, the drone abruptly turned to the right and crashed into the roof of a house.

In the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don, electronic warfare (EW) systems jammed a drone so badly that it crashed into a residential building, injuring 13 people.

This was reported by “Important Stories”. “It is likely that the work of Russian electronic warfare systems affected its flight trajectory,” the report notes.

According to the acting governor of the Rostov region, Yuri Slyusar, as a result of the drone strike, two people were taken to the hospital in serious condition, and residents were evacuated from the damaged building.

“Important Stories” drew attention to the fact that the video that appeared on social networks showed the UAV making a sharp right turn, starting to descend in the area of the Skver residential complex on Budyonnovsky Prospekt, after which it flew another 2 km and crashed into the roof of a residential building.Read also:

A number of experts suggested that the attack on the residential area was not intentional, but was the result of the work of Russian electronic warfare systems. 

A representative of the Ukrainian Volunteer Army, Serhiy Bratchuk, wrote on Telegram: “This is what happens when the air defense system launches an attack (-UNINA).”

According to analysts, Moscow will take advantage of this situation at a meeting between Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump, who will be convinced that Ukraine is to blame for “everything.”
