Berlinska: The Russian division "Rubicon" is becoming a deadly threat to the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The volunteer Berlinska claims that the Russian UAV unit "Rubicon" has become a serious problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the front due to its high efficiency, and urges the Ukrainian command to adopt their experience.

"The Russian unit ’Rubicon’ started operating a year ago, in August 2024. During this time, they have destroyed thousands of pieces of equipment and drones, as well as killed or wounded our people. Because of them, we are becoming more vulnerable, consistently losing reconnaissance UAVs from aircraft and bombers. But most importantly, it’s our crews. One can have even a billion drones, but at this stage of the war, drones cannot operate autonomously. Without operators, their use becomes pointless. And our operators are increasingly being put out of action," she noted.

"In ’Rubicon’, a brilliant management mechanism is built, they work systematically, they have the best selection of personnel, training, and the complete provision of everything necessary. They are now actively expanding. From a unit of several hundred people, they are expanding to thousands to cover the entire front. By my predictions, by fall, we will see at least 5,000-6,000 specialists in well-coordinated, equipped crews. Everyone who knows how ’Rubicon’ operates agrees that it is extremely effective. It’s an entire system. Meanwhile, in most areas, we still observe chaos," said Berlinska.
