Ukraine’s military intelligence said its special unit carried out a series of drone strikes against Russian air defense systems along the front line in late January, releasing video footage of the attacks.
In a statement published on Wednesday, Feb. 11, the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine (HUR) said operators from its “Prymara” unit had struck several high-value radar and missile systems used to protect Russian troops and rear positions.

According to HUR, the damaged equipment includes the 48Ya6-K1 Podlet radar, the 55Zh6U Nebo-U radar, the 1L119 Nebo-SVU radar, and the 9K332 Tor-M2DT air defense missile system, described as a rare Arctic-modified variant.
HUR said the strikes were conducted across multiple sectors of the front line. The released footage shows drones approaching radar installations and air defense platforms before impact, though Kyiv Post could not independently verify the location or timing of the strikes.
Russian forces rely on layered air defense systems to shield troop concentrations, logistics hubs and military infrastructure from Ukrainian aerial attacks.
