Russo-Ukrainian war, day 1655: More than 400 Ukrainian defense firms push Kyiv to create single authority over $6.8 billion industry
Meanwhile, Ukraine's Lasar's Group says its bomber drones destroyed a rare Russian Zhitel jammer 55 km behind the front.
On day 1655 of the Russo-Ukrainian war, Ukraine is facing a shortage of advanced missiles for countering Russian drone attacks. The R-73 missile, once the go-to weapon, is now obsolete. In response, Ukraine has adapted older weapons, such as the 1980s Leopards, by adding radar-guided anti-drone capabilities. Thirty-one of these tanks have been modified in Belgium and Rome, paid for using frozen Russian funds.
The country is also racing to construct smaller military warehouses to store its dwindling supplies, as larger ones have been destroyed by Russian forces. The ULA's Group reported that their bomber drones managed to destroy a Russian Zhitel jammer, which interferes with GPS, satellite, and cellular signals. This attack occurred only 55 km behind the front lines and enraged Ukrainian officials, with President Zelenskyy expressing his anger.
Meanwhile, an expert suggests that a Russian agent might have activated a MESH relay near a Security Service office, intensifying the tensions between Ukraine and Europe.
