The Russian Defense Ministry says it has recovered and analyzed the fragments of drones used by the Ukrainian military to stage a “terrorist attack” against Russia's Black Sea Fleet in the Crimean Peninsula, coming to the conclusion that the unmanned aerial vehicles were equipped with “Canadian-made navigation modules.”
The Ukrainian attack was carried out near Crimea’s Sevastopol port with 16 drones early on Saturday, with the Russian military saying it had managed to repel it.
“Specialists of the Russian Defense Ministry jointly with representatives from other state agencies examined Canadian-made navigation modules of the marine drones. Based on the results of data retrieved from the navigation receiver’s memory, it was established that the marine unmanned aerial vehicles had been launched from the coast near Odessa,” the ministry said in a statement on Sunday.
According to the statement, the drones had moved along the "grain corridor" security zone before changing course to head for Russia's naval base in Sevastopol, the largest city on the Crimean Peninsula. "This may indicate the preliminary launch of this device from aboard one of the civilian vessels chartered by Kiev or its Western patrons for the export of agricultural products from the seaports of Ukraine."
The Russian Defense Ministry said shortly after Saturday’s drone attacks that Moscow was suspending its participation in a United Nations-brokered deal that allowed grain exports from Ukraine amid the deteriorating global food crisis.

Russian President Vladimir Putin says Moscow is prepared to use military force to achieve the goals of its special military operation if Ukraine continues to delay peace talks.
During an inspection of a Russian armed forces command post on Saturday, Putin stressed that Moscow will not allow Kiev’s obstruction to prevent progress.
“If the Kiev authorities do not want to resolve the matter peacefully, we will accomplish all the tasks before us in the course of the special military operation by military means,” he said.
