The operation was preparing for more than a year and a half and was personally supervised by President Volodimir Zelenski. He was executed by SBU chief, Lieutenant General Vasil Maliuk and his team.
I don’t think it would be much of an exaggeration to call this one of the greatest special operations of all time.

In fact, the SBU leaked photos of the dozens of drones introduced to Russia.
