Russia is suspected of having used a new Iranian exploding drone in Ukraine, though it's not confirmed.
The weapon, Iran's jet-powered Shahed-238, is believed to offer a speed boost over the Shahed-136 loitering munition.
With these new drones, Moscow could create more headaches for Ukraine's air defenses, experts say.
