The russian army will continue its tactics of missile terror, but it will no longer be able to fundamentally affect the Ukrainian economy and logistics with missile and drone strikes.
The representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense, Andriy Yusov, announced that on the air of the national telethon.
"The rashists do not give up missile terror, but we see that the missile blitzkrieg has failed since it began, although this tool of intimidation is still being used," the intelligence officer said.
Yusov emphasized that intelligence observes increased intervals between enemy missile attacks.
"If there were weekly massive missile strikes earlier, now the interval can be 3-4 weeks.
They use "Shahed" but in a different way, both quantitatively and at intervals. Well, russians are really running out of high-precision missile weapons," Yusov said.
As the representative of Ukrainian intelligence emphasized, as for the "Kalibr," "Iskander," and "Kinzhal" missiles, then "these are not the weapons with which the enemy can afford to bombard Ukraine."
"Yes, the russian federation still has a lot of outdated missile weapons. Especially when it comes to the S-300 (S-300 is a series of long-range surface-to-air missile systems developed and operated by the former Soviet Union – ed.), this means an increase in the threat to the front-line territories, and we can still see destructions [caused by the systems] in Zaporizhzhia and other cities. But in general, this tactic of missile terror has already been defeated. Ukraine survived the winter, the energy system survived, and today the enemy will not be able to affect the Ukrainian economy and logistics fundamentally," Yusov noted.
For reference:
It should be noted that on March 17, the Ukrainian Air Force destroyed 11 Shaheds during a night drone attack on the regions of Ukraine.
As Rubryka wrote, in the Dnipropetrovsk region, the russian invaders directed kamikaze drones at critical infrastructure objects, and three drones were destroyed in the Dnipro region. Still, two UAVs hit a critical infrastructure object in Novomoskovsk.
In addition, in the Lviv region, on the night of March 18, the russian aggressors hit non-residential premises in the Yavoriv district with three UAVs, while Ukraine's Air Force shot down three more UAVs.
