The Russian military satellite Kosmos-2570 has released two unidentified objects, Object C and Object D, according to observations by LeoLabs. This is not the first time such an event has been recorded, with a similar occurrence observed in 2022. The American authorities have expressed difficulty in distinguishing these objects from the satellites and have noted that they interfere with the operations of other satellites. The nature of Object C and Object D remains undisclosed, but Russian experts suggest they are part of the Lotos-S1 payload, conducting electronic reconnaissance for the Russian military.
