The Center for National Resistance (CNR) reports.
The drones are expected to be assembled underground, with vocational school students involved in the process. The Russians believe that producing Shaheds in these occupied areas will speed up delivery to launch sites.
Additionally, the CNR reports that Russia intends to store the drones in urban areas, using local residents as human shields. Currently, the occupation authorities in the east are searching for final locations to assemble and deploy these attack drones.

Defense Express military expert Ivan Kyrychevskyi stated that Russian forces have exceeded their production goals and can now produce fifty Shahed drones each day.
