Why are drone attacks increasing?

The story highlights a significant increase in Russian drone attacks, with 2,500 launched in August compared to 1,500 in July. This escalation suggests Russia is intensifying its aerial campaign, possibly to overwhelm Ukrainian defences or target critical infrastructure. Ukraine's response is to test new interceptors to counter this growing threat.
