A Day After Russia Hits Chinese Consulate, Chinese Parts Found in Drones Attacking Kyiv

A Chinese-made part was found in the wreckage of a Russian-Iranian “Shahed-136”/“Geran-2” combat drone following a large-scale Russian airstrike on Kyiv on July 4, Ukrainian Minister of Foreign Affairs Andriy Sybiha revealed.

In statement, published via X, Sybiha highlighted the timing of the discovery, calling it an irony: just hours earlier, a Russian missile strike had caused minor damage to the Chinese Consulate General in Odesa.

“There is no better metaphor for how Putin continues to escalate his war and terror while involving others, including North Korean troops, Iranian weapons, and some Chinese manufacturers.,” he wrote.

Sybiha warned that the war in Ukraine is not a regional conflict but part of a broader global threat.

“Security in Europe, the Middle East, and the Indo-Pacific is inextricably linked,” he said. “This is not an attention competition.”

Calling for decisive international action, he urged the United States and global partners to intensify pressure not only on Moscow and its war budget, but also on all enablers of Russia’s aggression.

“There is no more time to wait,” Sybiha emphasized.

Earlier, in one of the fiercest and most devastating assaults on Ukraine’s capital since the onset of Russia’s full-scale invasion, a barrage of ballistic missiles and suicide drones struck Kyiv overnight, injuring at least 26 civilians and igniting widespread fires throughout the city.
