Explosive Claims Over Ukraine's Air Defense System
Russia confirms: Destruction of German-supplied air defense system in Ukraine conflict
In a shocking turn of events, Moscow stirred up the conflict in Ukraine with a bold claim. The Russian military allegedly annihilated a German-delivered Iris-T air defense system in the Dnipropetrovsk region using an Iskander missile. The Russian defense ministry flaunted a brief video clip on their Telegram channel, showcasing the supposed strike against the air defense system. They declared, "After the strike, the radar station, missile launcher, command post, and two accompanying vehicles were wiped out." However, the genuineness of this footage needs to be independently confirmed.
The Iris-T is a cutting-edge short-range air defense system. Since the onset of the Russian incursion, Germany has dispatched six of these batteries to Ukraine, primarily to safeguard major urban centers in the rear. If this claim holds true, a loss of such a system would have significant consequences.
Kiev, however, has remained tight-lipped about this allegation when approached by dpa. It's essential to note that both sides have a history of using decoys of weapons systems to mislead the enemy.
