Russia’s Ministry of Defense has published footage that shows the Buk-M1 air defenses intercepting a Ukrainian missile. The ministry specified that air defenses protect Russian military personnel, as well as key industrial and administrative sites, from aerial threats.
“We bear tremendous responsibility. We work against MRLS missiles, including HIMARS. On New Year’s night we worked against Olkha missiles," said the air defense commander.
“We did our job," he added.
