Air defense soldiers who failed to repel attacks by Ukrainian drones in occupied Crimea may be sent to the front line as punishment. This was reported by UNN with reference to the underground movement "ATESH".
Details
It is noted that some commanders continue to create mobile rapid response teams, but attacks by Ukrainian drones on oil refineries clearly demonstrate insufficient training and lack of understanding of the effective use of such teams.
However, despite these difficulties, the commanders of air defense units take harsh measures against servicemen: demotion, penalties, and in extreme cases, even sending them to war in Ukraine. This creates additional tension and stress among the military

Addendum
It is noted that the russian air defense forces are experiencing serious difficulties in combating drones due to the lack of efficiency of radar stations in recognizing such objects. They simply do not see them. This factor greatly complicates the rapid response and counteraction to Ukrainian drones.
The guerrillas emphasize that in regions where potential targets for attacks are located, civilians are concerned about the helplessness of air defense systems.
Realizing that there is no effective counteraction to the threats, local residents feel vulnerable and helpless, which creates a tense situation and requires urgent measures from the authorities to ensure the safety and protection of civilians
Recall
The head of the SBU, Vasyl Malyuk, said that the SBU had successfully attacked russian oil refineries, cutting oil exports by a third and cutting off a key source of revenue for the russian military budget.
