Before launching expensive Iskander missiles on Ukrainian territory, Russia thoroughly analyzes reconnaissance data, states the Spokesperson of the Air Forces Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Yurii Ihnat.

"All information prior to the strike is meticulously analyzed and studied. They don't just release an Iskander missile without careful consideration. These missiles cost millions, and they have limited quantities. Hence, the adversary meticulously calculates their plans, leveraging all available intelligence data," emphasized Ihnat.

He further added that Russian agents might coordinate strikes and urged Ukrainians not to discuss information regarding large-scale operations and similar matters over the phone, as these conversations could be intercepted.
