Aerial Scout Blasted The Authorities' Version Of The "Ukrainian Drone" In Minsk

The imagery from SC is an obvious throw-in.
A Belarusian volunteer aerial scout with the call sign "Mole" helped "Euroradio" to analyze photos of the wreckage of a drone that fell in Minsk the other day.
The propeller is from one drone, the wing is from another
The Investigative Committee posted photos of the alleged wreckage. The photos show a wing that belongs to an airplane-type UAV - that is, vehicles that outwardly resemble an airplane with wings.
Belarusian security officials did not indicate the drone's origin. But they posted a photo of the part with an inscription in Ukrainian: "Oberezhno, gvint. Rukhoma partana" (Careful, screw. Movable part). And such parts are used in other types of drones - multicopters that fly by propellers.
- These pictures are an obvious throw-in. The part that says "Oberezno, gwint" is a beam from a motor with a propeller. They don't put those on airplane type drones. They are used in ordinary drones like "Baba Yaga" (the informal name of the Ukrainian heavy attack drone)," notes "Mole."
The Ministry of Defense of Belarus reported about the fall of a drone near Minsk's Matusevicha Street on the night of July 29. In the afternoon, the Investigative Committee posted a video taken from a surveillance camera in the courtyard.
The video shows the drone starting to descend, but hitting a high-rise building and falling down in the courtyard of the house. There was no detonation, although the Investigative Committee said the drone was packed with TNT and metal balls.
- The sound in the video suggests that the drone was shot down. In the picture we see it falling nose down. If it had a warhead, there would have been an explosion," Mole summarizes.
