  "account": "Russia has introduced a new variant of the Geran-5 drone that can navigate using ground imagery instead of satellite navigation, according to the Ukrainian monitoring channel Polkovnyk GSh. This K5 variant features a new fuselage and operates faster than its predecessors, making it difficult for Ukraine's interceptors to catch. A presidential adviser on defense technology, Serhii Beskrestnov, known as Flash, reported that a second Russian drone filmed a strike on Kyiv live and transmitted control signals to the drone that executed the attack. Russian President's air war on Ukrainian cities has evolved into a constant race of adaptations, with Russia improving its drones' speed and self-navigation capabilities.",
  "summary": "The drone can steer by images of the terrain below, and its extra speed makes it harder for interceptors to catch, though Ukrainian officials have not confirmed the system.",
