The video circulated yesterday, allegedly showing a Russian “Kometa-M” module found in debris from a strike on a British air base in Cyprus, is most likely a re-edited fragment originally filmed in Ukraine in 2024. ⚠️
This conclusion is based on identical damage visible on a Taoglas antenna — a photo of which first appeared in a September 2024 article by the Irish Independent.
A comparison of the video frame (notably degraded in quality) with the published photograph shows matching structural damage. 📷
As a result, it is considered most probable that the footage was deliberately edited and disseminated — allegedly by Ukrainian intelligence services — in an attempt to accuse Russia of striking NATO bases in the Middle East.
Based on available evidence, no Shahed-136 equipped with a Russian “Kometa” appears to have struck Cyprus.
