It is impossible to carry out two such operations: MP told how “Web” was planned

Logistics, in particular, caused difficulties, said Roman Kostenko.

Few people knew about the special operation ” Web “. Even some UAV operators joined it at the final stage.

Roman Kostenko, a people’s deputy from “Golos”, secretary of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence, spoke about this on air at ” Radio NV “.

“Conditions were created, technical capabilities were prepared. Artificial intelligence was trained so that they could distinguish aircraft at airfields. In parallel, reconnaissance was conducted at airfields. After all, the Russians were constantly trying to move aircraft… Then the most difficult stage was transporting the drones themselves there. Even more difficult was transporting weapons,” Kostenko said.

He added that when everything was delivered to Russia, the SBU had to ensure the secrecy of such an operation, in particular from Russian counterintelligence.

“And the most important thing is the organization of interaction. After all, I am sure that it is almost impossible to conduct two such operations in a row. And they understood that if one began a little earlier, then there would be an immediate reaction at all the other airfields,” Kostenko added.

The MP also spoke about the resources that were allocated for this operation: “We say that cheap drones destroyed a third of strategic aviation – this is true. But even though drones are cheap, the bulk of resources went elsewhere. This is preparation, creating opportunities, transporting drones, recruiting agents on the side of the Russian Federation. Therefore, drones are relatively inexpensive, but the operation was not cheap. Although of course less than the losses suffered by the Russian Federation,”

Special Operation “Web”: Important News

Earlier, the head of the SBU, Vasyl Malyuk, reported that 41 aircraft were hit by drone strikes , including A-50, Tu-95, Tu-22 M3 and Tu-160. According to him, the special operation took place simultaneously in three time zones and was extremely complex from a logistical point of view.

President Volodymyr Zelensky also commented on the operation. He noted that inflicting losses on the Russian invaders and reducing their armed potential should force Russia to agree to real diplomacy.
