Because it's Ukrainian lolololol. And it has a range that had to come from outside Russian area of operations. Jesus you're dumb as shit.
Russia could have access to Tu-141 drones. They could use one of those to strike a NATO target, preferably a non military target, something like a school, in the hope of turning NATO against Ukraine.. Once again, you dumb ****, how would you know who fired it?
ADDED:
The Tu-141 was a follow-on to the
Tupolev Tu-123 and is a relatively large, medium-range reconnaissance drone. It is designed to undertake reconnaissance missions several kilometers behind the front lines at
trans-sonic speeds. It can carry a range of payloads, including film cameras,
infrared imagers, EO imagers, and
imaging radar.
As with previous Tupolev designs, it has a dart-like rear-mounted delta wing, forward-mounted
canards, and a KR-17A
turbojet engine mounted above the tail. It is launched from a trailer using a solid-propellant booster and lands with the aid of a tail-mounted parachute.
Usage and incidents[edit]
The Tu-141 was in Soviet service from 1979 to 1989, mostly on the western borders of the Soviet Union.
It was pressed back into service by the
Ukrainian Air Force for the
War in Donbas.
On 8 March 2022, a Tu-141 reconnaissance drone was reported crashed in Ukraine.
About midnight on 10 March 2022, during the
2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, a Tu-141
crashed in front of a student campus in
Zagreb,
Croatia, over 550 kilometres (340 mi) from Ukraine. Before it crashed, it had flown over Romania and Hungary. There were no casualties. The Ukrainian Air Force said that the drone did not belong to them. The Russian Embassy in Zagreb stated that Russian forces had not had such drones in their arsenal since the
collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. The Croatian president,
Zoran Milanović, said it was clear the drone came from the direction of Ukraine, entering Croatia after flying over Hungary. The investigation conducted by the
Ministry of Defence of Croatia concluded that the crashed drone had belonged to the
Armed Forces of Ukraine and carried a bomb that was meant for striking Russia′s positions but it had strayed off course and crashed after it ran out of fuel.

Bottom line, nobody appears to know for sure who launched it and for what reason.
