Ukrainian spies have destroyed a crucial radar system deep inside Russia leaving Vladimir Putin’s forces in the region reeling.
Ukraine’s intelligence services, the SBU, claimed the Nebo-U system was hit by seven kamikaze drones resulting in its destruction.
Speaking to Ukrinform, the source said: “This time, the Russians have one less modernized Nebo-U system, which helped the enemy detect Ukrainian weapons and supported bombers attacking the Ukrainian border with guided aerial bombs.”
The destruction of the key radar would allow Ukraine to use its own aircraft more freely in the north of the country and blind Russian air defences in the area, the source claimed.
The source said: “The radar blindness of the Russians will help our troops conduct reconnaissance, launch drones and use army aircraft more efficiently in this area.”
