ATESH clarifies that it has been collecting information about military objects in Sevastopol and the locations of air defense for a long time. This information helped the Armed Forces of Ukraine assess the situation and successfully strike the enemy's headquarters.

Members of the movement also expressed gratitude to the Russian Ministry of Defense for delays in payments to military personnel, which "helped to engage officers from the Russian Black Sea Fleet in cooperation."
