HIMARS for Russians – goal number 1, intelligence on the effective use of APU systems/Collage 24 channel

Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine inflict successful strikes on enemy positions, rear areas, ammunition storage and control points. Vadim Skibitsky, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, said this on the air of the Rada TV channel.
What is HIMARS
An American multiple launch rocket system. Thanks to the wheelbase, the M270 MLR is highly mobile and faster than the tracked one. It is a powerful, long-range and accurate weapon capable of dealing devastating blows to targets.
For the Russian special services and sabotage and reconnaissance groups HIMARS, this is priority No. 1. They demonstrated their effectiveness within three weeks, Skibitsky said.
He is convinced that the invaders who came to our territories should not feel at home. “Everything must be done to keep the ground burning under their feet. And this is done thanks to our valiant Armed Forces,” he stressed.
