• The most recent HUR figure (August 2026) is 5,816 foreign components, covering 202 types of Russian weapons and military equipment, not 5,500 components restricted to missiles; no source was found stating exactly 5,500 components in missiles.
• The 5,816 figure includes drones, missiles and armoured vehicles, so the number of components found specifically in missiles would be lower than the headline total.

• A separate figure quoted by President Zelenskyy in October 2025 (over 100,000 foreign parts in a single large attack wave) shows the totals vary greatly depending on the counting methodology and reference period.
