“Without these devices, data on low flying targets ceases to arrive on time, response speed drops, and some routes remain without cover,” ATESH reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

In recent months, ATESH has regularly reported on sabotage, reconnaissance, and other actions in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and in regions of Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n
