During reconnaissance, Atesh agents discovered serious problems with Russian air defense in the Zaporizhzhia direction.
"Our sources in the air defense units of the Russian forces in the Zaporizhzhia direction report a catastrophic state of equipment. Strikes by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on repair facilities and shortages have led to the mass failure of anti-aircraft systems, including the Tor air defense system," Atesh says.
Due to an acute shortage of serviceable systems, the Russians are forced to use tractors to tow launchers into position. This practice makes the equipment extremely vulnerable and turns expensive systems into easy targets.
The shortage of spare parts is a particular problem. Military-industrial enterprises operating under increased pressure are producing substandard components that fail prematurely.
"Every air defense system we detect, with its coordinates and operating mode, is an opportunity for the Ukrainian Defense Forces to deliver a precision strike. The Russian air defense system is falling apart at the seams," the intelligence officers add.

Earlier, agents of the Atesh movement showed the situation at the Kacha airfield in occupied Crimea and identified key Russian military facilities.
Russian troops in the temporarily occupied Crimea have also installed a new air defense complex – several S-300/S-400 air defense missile launchers, as well as radars.
