Ukrainian intelligence carried out a sabotage operation in Crimea, under Russian control since 2014, which led to the destruction of a Podlet radar station valued at 5 million dollars.

No details have been disclosed about the covert operation, but Ukrainian intelligence confirmed that the radar was destroyed in a fire.

The agency shared a map showing the radar’s location in western Crimea.

Earlier this week, Ukraine had already targeted a refinery and a weapons depot in Russia’s Kaluga region.

Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin has vowed to reduce Ukraine “to dust” by unleashing new ballistic missiles on the country.

The Russian president had previously hinted that his Oreshnik missiles would be launched again, especially after Ukrainian forces used American and British long-range missiles on Russian territory.

During a speech in Kazakhstan, where he is on a state visit, he also pledged to accelerate the production of intercontinental ballistic missiles.
