Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine (HUR) continues to successfully uncover Russian plans across all continents. Specialists breached Russian secure communication terminal networks located along the front line with Ukraine and even in Africa.

HUR emphasized that in a high-tech war, timely exposure of Russia's plans and intentions is particularly important.

"Domestic military intelligence pays significant attention to uncovering and tracking the movement of enemy command posts. It seeks to extract maximum information from them and, under favorable conditions, eliminate the enemy leadership," the statement said.

HUR units, using technical intelligence tools combined with operational methods, identified "networks of special secure communication terminals" of the Russian army along the front line with Ukraine and on the African continent.

"After long-term use of the information obtained from these terminals regarding the plans of Russian forces, a decision was made to publish their geolocations and destroy them," the intelligence service added.

In October, Ukraine's Defense Intelligence released information on more than 100 ships and captains involved in transporting Russian and Iranian oil subject to sanctions, as well as stolen Ukrainian grain.

The same month, intelligence also revealed over 80 Russian defense factories that remain outside the scope of current sanctions.
