"Details emerge about the 'Putin' operation, as Russians sink into heavy drinking sessions"
In an exclusive interview with "We-Ukraine", Vasily Malyuk, the Head of Ukraine's Security Service (SBU), revealed details about a covert operation known as "Operation Web". Originally planned for May 9, 2025, the operation was postponed due to an unexpected issue.
Russian truck drivers, celebrating holidays such as Easter and May 9 (Victory Day), were heavily intoxicated, causing delays in intelligence contacts and logistics. This impairment resulted in a month-long postponement, with the operation finally taking place on June 1, 2025.
The SBU had created a fictitious logistics company in Chelyabinsk, Russia, providing a cover for agents working behind enemy lines. The operation involved delivering drones to Russian enemy airfields using these compromised truck drivers, who were too intoxicated during the initial timeframe to be reliably contacted or to perform the delivery.
Despite the postponement, the operation was successful, demonstrating the resilience and adaptability of Ukrainian intelligence services in overcoming setbacks caused by enemy vulnerabilities and unpredictable circumstances. Malyuk also hinted at ongoing challenges and weekly mishaps in operational work within enemy territory, highlighting the complex and dynamic nature of Ukraine's intelligence activities.
Malyuk shared that only a few people knew the detailed plan for the "Web" special operation. The preparation for the operation was kept in strict secrecy. The general-leutenant also noted that there were many issues in the enemy's rear that needed to be addressed.
In a significant achievement, the Ukrainian President was in touch with the team conducting the "Web" special operation, and Malyuk revealed that the President sometimes sped things up when necessary. As a result of the operation, the SBU was able to destroy 41 Russian strategic aircraft using FPV drones.
Despite the challenges faced, Malyuk remained optimistic, stating that "everything always works out as it should". This operation serves as a testament to the determination and resourcefulness of Ukraine's intelligence services in the face of adversity.
