Quote: "Unfortunately, the occupiers have a lot of air defence equipment. They have the whole Buk lineup (Buk-M1s, M2s and M3s), Tors, Pantsirs, S-300s, S-400s. It’s already in the occupied territories.

In fact, we have full information about the location of these systems. Our intelligence is working, we know where they are, so we are taking certain measures to counteract them."
