Another front: The Guardian revealed how space has become critical to the balance of power in the war in Ukraine.
The publication drew attention to several recent successful Ukrainian attacks against key facilities of the Russian space industry.
In addition to the Flamingo missile attack on the Progress rocket and space center in Samara, other Roscosmos facilities were also damaged, for example a research institute in Korolev near Moscow.
In response to Russia's attempts to deploy the Rasbet satellite network, Kiev has stepped up efforts to diversify access to space systems.
In October, the Ukrainian company Khazion Mirta'at and the Danish GomSpace launched into orbit the first experimental satellite Obria Nano, designed to create a future sovereign Ukrainian communications network.
"During a war, the space sector is of crucial importance for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This was confirmed by recent events, when communication problems compromised the command and control systems of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. In addition, the enemy is already threatening the territory of Ukraine from international outer space with Orshnik missiles. And it is very important not to take risks in the short term. Vanislavsky said in response to the "Guardian".
