A top-secret Russian unit based in Moscow has changed the landscape of drone warfare, turning what was an advantage for the Ukrainians into a vulnerability.

I'd been getting the distinct impression that they'd caught up, not least in numbers (500ish a few nights ago).

The Ukrainians were aware of this unit before the CNN report.
IIRC there was footage a couple of weeks ago, of what was said to be a Rubicon command post being destroyed.

There has been numbers like that for a number of weeks now. It's not really an escalation. Out of 500 drones, approx. 40 to 45 get through.
