Info:
Russia national Artem Alexandrovich Snitko (Snitko) is an SEZ Alabuga official involved in the production of Iranian-designed UAVs, such as the Shahed-136, and its Russian version, the Geran-2. Snitko was also involved in the transshipment of materials from Iran to Russia related to SEZ Alabuga’s UAV production activity.
Russia-based Joint Stock Company Special Economic Zone of Industrial Production Alabuga (SEZ Alabuga) maintains a contract with the Russian military to assemble Geran-2 UAVs that were shipped from Iran, while increasing domestic production capability to produce many of the components for the Iranian-designed UAVs in Russia. SEZ Alabuga is expected to ramp up production under their contract to produce thousands of UAVs through 2025. SEZ Alabuga is owned and controlled by the Government of the Republic of Tatarstan. SEZ Alabuga has exploited underage students from an affiliated polytechnic university as laborers to assemble these attack UAVs in exploitative conditions.
Russia and Iran’s Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics (MODAFL) have cooperated to finance and produce Iranian-designed one-way attack UAVs, also known as kamikaze drones, at a newly established a facility in Russia. State is also designating MODAFL pursuant to E.O. 14024 today. This network has facilitated shipments, conducted financial transactions, and engaged in industrial production in support of this cooperation between Russian and Iran to produce one-way attack UAVs for use by the Russian military in Ukraine, including against critical infrastructure and other civilian targets.
