📽️ “Downed Russian pilots”: September 3 – the premiere of the film about resistance to the occupiers in the sky
📌 On Sunday, September 3, 2023, at 10:15 p.m., the documentary film “Downed Russian pilots” from the series “Military Intelligence of Ukraine” will be broadcast on the national telethon.
✔️ The tape describes the most significant episodes of the resistance of the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine to the air assault of the Russians during the full-scale invasion and contains:
🔥amazing footage of the destruction of Russian planes, helicopters, missiles and drones; 👁️ unique testimonies of Ukrainian scouts, pilots and anti-aircraft fighters;
🪶show stories of captured Russian pilots.
▫️ Also, the film reveals for the first time the details of perhaps the most successful special operation of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine under the code name “Synytsia” in the entire history of our country.
▫️ Thanks to the carefully planned and clear work of our military intelligence officers, a Russian pilot drove a Russian MI-8AMTSh helicopter, loaded with components for combat aircraft, into Ukrainian territory.
“We were able to get the right approach to the pilot, get all of [his] family out of sight, and ultimately create conditions where he was able to overrun this aircraft with a crew that didn’t know what was going on. When they realized where they sat down, they tried to run away. Unfortunately, they were destroyed. I would like to [take them] alive, but we have what we have,” Kyrylo Budanov, head of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, said about the special operation.
“Operation “Synytsia” by the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine was very similar to the operation “Diamond”, which was carried out in 1966 by the Israeli Mossad, persuading an Iraqi pilot to steal the most modern Soviet MIG-21 at that time. This unique story of a correct Russian pilot, among several more tragic stories of incorrect Russian pilots, will be shown on Sunday, September 3,” announced Artem Shevchenko, the author of the “Military Intelligence of Ukraine” series.
