Kyiv says Ukraine missiles hit army radars in Russia

Kyiv, Ukraine (AFP) Jan 17, 2025

Ukraine said Friday it had launched a missile strike one day earlier on the western Belgorod region targeting air defence systems and damaging military radars.

Kyiv has stepped up its cross border drone and missile attacks on Russian territory and said this week it had launched its largest barrage of the war on military sites and energy installations over the border.

The Ukrainian General Staff wrote on social media that missile units had carried out "precision strikes" on Russian military targets in Belgorod, which borders Ukraine.

It said it had attacked air defence systems under the 568th anti-aircraft missile regiment and claimed that an S-400 radar had been damaged alongside equipment linked to another brigade.

There was no immediate response from Moscow to the claims, which could not be verified by AFP.

Moscow in turn has been targeting Ukrainian energy facilities and this week launched dozens of missiles and drones at sites mainly in western Ukraine near the border with Poland.

Kyiv said Friday that its air defence systems had shot down 33 Russian drones over 11 Ukrainian region at night.
