Currently, the Russians are focusing on the southern region.
Despite Russia's efforts to conquer the skies over Ukraine, the effective operation of Ukraine's air defense system has become a major challenge for enemy aircraft, according to a nightly report by British intelligence.
“Despite Russia's ongoing efforts to reduce the effectiveness of Ukraine's air defense, Ukraine continues to pose a significant challenge to Russian air and missile operations. As a result, Russian aircraft are still vulnerable to short- and medium-range air defense systems,” the statement said.
Britain's intelligence emphasizes that Russia's inability to destroy Ukraine's air defense systems has been a major obstacle to their efforts to gain widespread control of the skies, which in turn has had a significant impact on their ability to support their ground forces on a number of fronts.
“During the last week, there has been a concentration of Russian air activity in southeastern Ukraine, probably as a result of Russia's concentration of military operations in the region,” the statement said.
