США did not warn Ukraine about the first wave of night ballistic attack
The American partners did not warn Ukraine about the first wave of the ballistic attack, which Russia conducted around the 23th hour of 18 October. This was reported by the spokesman of the Air Force Юрій Ігнат on the air of the telethon.
About the second wave, which began at 3th hour, there was already a warning. That is, the situation is the same as it was last week.
«Але хочу зазначити, що в нас є і власні джерела, які повідомляють нам про виходи. Є радіолокаційне пол, яке відстежується в межах можливого», said Ігнат.
He said that this time the Air Force had warned of ballistics about a minute before it appeared in the sky.
«Уточнимо, що перший раз, дійсно, інформація через певні причини не надходила. Тобто розбираються наші експерти разом з партнерами, тому що не вперше така ситуація. А вже о 3-й ночі поступила інформація. Тут теж треба розуміти, що настільки мало часу, що навіть алгоритм задіяння тих самих гучномовців, сирен відстає від прильотів», said Юрій Ігнат.
He said that when the enemy attacks with ballistics around midnight, it is possible that he will repeat the strikes further into the night.
Context
12 October Russia attacked Ukraine with ballistic missiles. The first explosions were heard even before the alert was announced. 13 October the situation repeated itself, and the President and the Air Force officially reported that the partners did not give a warning.
Information on the launch of ballistics to Ukraine is transmitted to Сполучені Штати. Ukraine can detect high-speed targets directly on the fly, which is too late to respond to the alarm.
The President of Ukraine confirmed that there was no warning from США.
A similar situation occurred last year, against the background of a new wave of pressure США on Ukraine. Тоді Вашингтон also did not give Ukraine information about the launch of ballistics. Subsequently, data transmission was resumed.
This time, США said that there were no warnings due to weather conditions and technical failures. At the same time, the warnings disappeared synchronously with the aggravation of the rhetoric of the American president regarding Ukraine, the lifting of sanctions against Russia and the speed limit for the use of Starlink by the military.
