On August 23, 2023, two "Shahed-136" UAVs were shot down over the Sumy region. On August 22, a "Shahed" hit the city council in the Chernihiv region. On the night of August 16, Ukrainian air defenses destroyed 13 "Shaheds". According to analysis, these drones cost approximately $20k – $50k. These are mere pennies for Russia, making it easy for them to bulk purchase from Iran. However, even this seemed insufficient for the Russians.
At the "special economic zone" in Tatarstan, a factory was established to manufacture Shaheds. The Russians hope to also produce all the components themselves. This enterprise was set up to circumvent sanctions with the assistance of "friends" from Iran.
OSINT analysts from the Molfar agency have identified individuals involved in producing kamikaze drones in Russia. In this article, we reveal the names of some of these employees. We will also discuss how criminals avoid responsibility through typos or intentional errors.
Errors in SDN Sanction Lists: Cases and Consequences
An investigation by the Kyiv Independent has revealed that a high-ranking Russian FSB official, Sergei Korolev, is still not under U.S. sanctions due to errors in his published personal data — an incorrect date of birth was listed. Korolev was appointed deputy head of the FSB in 2021.
However, Korolev is not the only one whose data has been entered with errors. A similar case concerns Alexei Florov, who is responsible for UAV production at Albatross (1, 2), located in the special economic zone of Alabuga. The SDN (Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List*) includes an incorrect birth date for Florov — an error that could affect the effectiveness of the sanctions.
* The Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List lists individuals, companies, and organizations under sanctions by the United States. This list is maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of Treasury. Persons and organizations on this list are restricted in their ability to do business with the U.S., and their assets within the U.S. jurisdiction are blocked. These sanctions are usually imposed due to allegations of terrorism, drug trafficking, human rights violations, activities undermining democratic processes, or other serious crimes. Documentary Confirmation
Documentary Confirmation
Alexei Florov was born on April 9, 1985, not September 10, 1983, as listed in the SDN. This is confirmed by a series of documents found by analysts at Molfar:
- a certificate of physical person registration at the tax authority in the Russian Federation (which confirms that the TIN 501814379947 was assigned to this Florov);
- two passports of Florov (1, 2);
- an invalid foreign passport;
- powers of attorney issued to Florov (1, 2);
- a land lease agreement signed by him.
Alexei Vadimovich Florov is the director and co-founder of LLC Albatross. This is evidenced, among other things, by the founding agreement and the minutes of the founders' meeting of this LLC.
Before founding LLC Albatross, Florov worked at other Russian companies engaged in UAV production. In particular, he worked as a test engineer for UAVs at LLC IRKUT Engineering, where he participated in developing and testing the Irkut-10 and Irkut-3 UAVs. The Irkut-10 UAVs are armed with the Russian border service and FSB.
From February 2014 to September 2017, Florov worked as the deputy head of the Moscow branch of LLC Finko, a company of the Unmanned Systems group. This company, among other things, produces the Supercam UAV. Russia uses this type of UAV in the war against Ukraine. Besides working at Albatross, Florov is one of the individuals responsible for producing the Iranian UAV Shahid in Russia. As of October 2023, he was the chief designer of JSC OEZ PPT Alabuga, where these UAVs are produced.
READ ALSO:
From November 2022 to May 2023, when Russia was localizing the production of Shahed on its territory, Florov visited Iran at least five times (1, 2, 3, 4, 5). In the materials from the "hack" of the email servers of the Iranian company Sahara Thunder, which was carried out in early 2024, a report on one of these trips was found and published. According to that report, the purpose of the visit was "technology transfer, obtaining source code, and demonstration of the capabilities of boats 236 with the seeker, 236 rocket, 107 (scout/gift), as well as organizing training for production personnel."
It was likely about Shahed-236 and Shahed-107. The Ukrainian military portal Militarny, which analyzed this leak, shares this opinion. Meanwhile, Florov and other individuals accompanying him on the trip were referred to in the report as "members of the Alabuga JSC delegation."
Alabuga/Yelabuga. What is it, and where is it located?
Alabuga is a special economic zone* in Tatarstan, Russia, 10 kilometers from Yelabuga. It was established back in 2006. According to a publication from March 2022, there were 33 enterprises operating there, and about 20 were in the planning or construction phase. Some of these productions also had affiliated institutions where future workers were trained.
*SEZ (special economic zone) refers to a portion of a country's territory where goods are considered outside the customs territory. They are not subject to regular customs control and taxation. It introduces preferential customs, currency-financial, tax, and other economic activity conditions within its boundaries.
The "Alabuga" SEZ is located in Tatarstan, near the Yelabuga city, near the Kama river
The location of the enterprise is advantageous — nearby, there's a railway, an airport, and the federal highway M7. Previously, Alabuga produced cat food, automotive glass, and cultivated mushrooms for sale. Everything changed after the onset of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and the subsequent sanctions imposed on the aggressor country. The Russian government announced plans to produce 6,000 drones by 2025. "Alabuga" plays a pivotal role in these plans.
So far, as reported by The Washington Post, production needs to catch up at least a month behind schedule. Alabuga's workers have managed to assemble only 300 drones. But these are merely "bodies" that can't yet fly. The word "yet" is the most terrifying part of this story because if sanctions are relaxed, or if Russia somehow finds a way to acquire the intricate electronic components necessary for large-scale drone production, a nightly nightmare may become a reality for every resident of Ukraine.

Employees of "Alabuga" and other specialists working in Russia on creating drones are direct participants in the military conflict against Ukraine. Their contribution to producing lethal equipment for the aggressor makes them direct accomplices in crimes and genocide against the Ukrainian people. The names of these individuals should be known worldwide as those who chose the side of aggression and violence.
We urge the European Union and all democratic countries to immediately impose sanctions on these individuals: freeze their assets, deny them entry, and confiscate their property. This is a matter of justice and moral responsibility to the modern world.
