A mysterious sensation happened in the sky over Kiev: there in broad daylight Bayraktar drone was shot down.
Ukrainian military immediately admitted that it was their drone. Why was he dumped? They explain: therefore, communication was lost with this UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle – KP), it became uncontrollable and could collapse on the city.
This version seems to be correct. Moreover, anything can happen with complex aircraft. But then there are a lot of doubts and reasonable questions that have not yet been answered. Could this be the Russian drone that was fired at Zelenskiy’s office in retaliation for the attack on the Kremlin?

But the Russian army does not have Bayraktars. They are only in the Armed Forces. Yes, and the President of Ukraine is not in the capital now, and hitting his bunker with even all 4 Bayraktar missiles (and this together is 40 kg of TNT) is still pointless. Until his underground residence, hidden at a depth of 90 meters (object ChZ-417 on Bankovaya, 11), and such an amount of explosives is not available. Therefore, this option is no longer available.
And now let us once again pay attention to the recognition of the Ukrainian military: according to them, the UAV was shot down due to the loss of contact with him. In other words, he became out of control. And the maximum distance at which this UAV remains controllable is 150 km. Therefore, it could not have been launched from Russian territory or from the positions of Russian troops. And today they are deployed far from the capital of Ukraine. And even those of our electronic warfare systems (EW) from such a great distance do not reach the sky over Kiev. This is not for you at the line of contact somewhere in the Donbass or in Zaporozhye.
Go ahead. Maybe one of the Ukrainian operators of “Bayraktar” pressed the wrong button and the UAV took off by itself?
But specialists who know the training system perfectly drone to launch, they unanimously say that this is excluded. There is a triple blocking system from accidental or erroneous launch of the UAV. And if the launch was conscious, then what was the goal, if (I repeat) our troops were not only 150, but even 250 km away?
All this does not prevent us from building our own version of events, different from the official Ukrainian one.
Communication was not lost, and “Bayraktar” had to hit some object with a huge number of casualties (not excluding children), in order to later accuse Russia of a terrible crime. Well, then – to file this terrorist attack as Moscow’s revenge for the attack on the Kremlin.
But for some reason (perhaps due to secrecy or inconsistency), the air defense forces covering Kyiv did not know about this “operation” and shot down an attack drone. And the “professionalism” of the guardians of the Ukrainian sky is well known – their rockets, hitting residential buildings, or falling on Poland, Belarus and Moldova, are good proof of this. Although another thing cannot be ruled out: after the attack of drones on the Kremlin, the Kiev air defense system is in a state of panic psychosis – its commanders and crews are waiting for a “Moscow answer”, which is why they see a terrible blow from the sky, which is why they hit their own drone flying to the site of the provocative attack. It cannot be ruled out that the goal was even a kindergarten full of children? Isn’t that why a large group of Ukrainian and foreign journalists were prepared in advance, waiting for the command to leave for the site of the “atrocities of Muscovites”? But, thank God, it didn’t work out. Everything didn’t go as planned. That is why the Armed Forces of Ukraine quickly recognized that it was their UAV and drew a version of “loss of communication”. To divert public opinion from the truth.
