Droneutskytningssted under bygging i Oryol oblast, skinner rettet mot de baltiske landene

20. august 2026 rapporterte det ukrainske undersøkende mediet Slidstvo.Info at droneutskytningsstedet nær Tsymbulova i Oryol oblast var blitt utvidet med sju 82 meter lange utskytningsskinner for de jetdrevne dronene Geran-4 og Geran-5, fire utskytningsinnretninger for Geran-3 og tre for Geran-2, og at en andre utskytningsbane var under bygging sommeren 2026. Ifølge analytikeren som ble sitert (fra Ukrainas 412. Nemesis-brigade) var utskytningsskinnene rettet mot nordvest, mot Latvia, Litauen og Estland, snarere enn mot Ukraina. Ekspert Anatoliy Khrapchynskyi uttalte at europeiske land og Finland ville være innenfor rekkevidden til disse systemene.

On 20 August 2026, the Ukrainian investigative outlet Slidstvo.Info reported that the drone launch site near Tsymbulova in Oryol Oblast had been expanded with seven 82-metre launch rails for Geran-4 and Geran-5 jet-powered drones, four launchers for Geran-3 and three for Geran-2 drones, and that a second launch strip was under construction in summer 2026. According to the analyst cited (from Ukraine’s 412th Nemesis Brigade), the launch rails were oriented north-west, towards Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, rather than towards Ukraine. Expert Anatoliy Khrapchynskyi stated that European countries and Finland would be within range of these systems.
