Andriy Yusov of Ukraine's military intelligence said Russia can produce up to 2,700 Geran-2 drones, its version of the Shahed, each month, mostly at the Alabuga special economic zone in Tatarstan. He said Russia still cannot launch several thousand a day.

• Alabuga, in Yelabuga, Tatarstan, is the main production site.
• Camera-equipped, radio-controlled versions were still experimental, he said.
• Scaling them depends on access to foreign components.
