Security Service of Ukraine cyber specialists, together with their colleagues from the Ukrainian Defense Forces, hit Russia's $25 million Zoopark radar station, the Security Service of Ukraine reports.

According to the SSU, special forces of the Cyber Security Department hit the Russian Zoopark counter-battery radar with several FPV drones.

"The Russian occupants wanted to mislead Ukrainian soldiers by placing several models next to the well-camouflaged radar. But this did not save Zoopark," the military explains.

This complex is quite rare in the Russian army. It is designed for reconnaissance and fire detection of ground artillery systems: cannon artillery and MLRS.

Last month, Ukrainian border guards already destroyed the Russian Zoopark-1 radar.

In March, the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed the Zoopark radar along with its crew in the Lyman sector.
