“A Ukrainian military source said that, in his opinion, Russia’s strikes with long-range cruise missiles, which are among the most expensive weapons in its non-nuclear arsenal, are carried out using satellite images provided by US companies,” the material reads.

According to the magazine’s Ukrainian whistleblower, the consistency in such a claim is “illustrative.” The satellite takes images of a military facility, then a few days or weeks later a missile lands on the given point.

“The number of coincidences when images are followed by strikes is too high to be random,” said an unnamed interlocutor to The Atlantic.

Recall, the Armed forces of the Russian Federation with the help of an upgraded kamikaze drone “Lancet” again hit the Su-25 attack aircraft of the Ukrainian Air Force (VVSU) at the military airfield Dolgintsevo in Krivoy Rog. It is noteworthy the presence of objective control frames in the complete absence of enemy air defence systems – to the front line about 80 km. Before that, a video of a barrage drone strike on a MiG-29 fighter aircraft of the Air Force in the Kryvyi Rih region was published.
