Day SBU Operation Against Russia
Key Points:
- President Volodymyr Zelensky approved a 40-day Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) operation aimed at increasing pressure on Russia to end the war against Ukraine.
- The decision followed a report on Ukraine’s long- and mid-range sanctions plans and recent battlefield successes by the SBU, particularly its Center of Special Operations “Alpha.”
- Ukraine is expanding its use of medium- and long-range strikes targeting Russian sites, focusing heavily on Russia’s oil industry to disrupt Moscow’s revenue and logistics.
- The SBU’s Alpha unit has demonstrated strong results in drone warfare, leading in neutralizing Russian personnel and equipment on the front lines.
- Alpha, an elite special operations unit, is playing a key role in using drones to counter Russia’s manpower advantage and strike deep into Russian military and logistical networks.
