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.
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.
