Ukrainian defenders destroy Russian air defense in Belgorod region – video

On July 20, the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck a Russian S-300P anti-aircraft missile system and a Nebo-M radar system in the Belgorod region. About reported General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

"The long-range firepower successfully destroyed a Russian S-300P air defense system in the Belgorod region, which significantly reduced the coverage area of Russian long-range air defense in the region," the military said.

In the same area, Ukrainian troops also hit the Nebo-M radar system, which critically affected its functionality and at the same time reduced the operational capabilities of the neighboring 5H66M radar, the General Staff said.

The military noted that such strikes significantly weaken the Russian air defense system, reducing the occupiers' ability to cover their troops and infrastructure, and facilitate Ukrainian operations.

"The weakening of these systems directly supports our efforts to reduce Russia's ability to wage aggressive war and attack civilians and civilian infrastructure of our country," the General Staff added.

The command announced the continuation of such strikes.

• In early June, Ukrainian defenders in the Bryansk region destroyed three Iskander-M launchers, from which the invaders fired at Ukraine.
