>Military asset disguised as civilian shipping containers.
Surely that won't backfire and lead to random trucks being fired upon. Blurring the lines between military and civilian always ends well.

It seems like they had to intentionally dump these trailers to a site then leave. Thing is about these quadcopters is the batteries have a relatively short shelf life and drops drastically if they are stored at full charge. Just the nature of LiPO batteries being kind of shit, a lot of Current discharge, at a cost.
These containers had a specific profile, notice the solar panels. I can only figure they used a solar trickle charge to keep the batteries on the drones topped off and ready to go. Red flag 1.
Next problem, abandoning trailers near military installations. It should be a red flag for any competent security. Based on the smoke plumes in the background, I guess the launch point had line of sight proximity to the base. Too close to just ignore without suspicion. These trailers would have needed to be dropped within the same week of this attack.
It was stupid. It signals that Ukraine will never participate with negotiations and will continue to let this war drag on. Costing lives on both sides. I do not believe the Ukrainians (NATO) when they claim to have crippled a significant portion of Russia's deterrent system. Also Ukraine has no satellites, thus indicating the complicity of NATO for this operation to occur.
