Kyiv has repeatedly said it has targeted Moscow's advanced, and often expensive, air-defense assets in more than two years of war.

Ukraine has taken out several of Russia's air-defense systems, Kyiv's authorities have said, as President Volodymyr Zelensky called for the targeting of Russian missile launchers and the bolstering of Ukraine's own air-defense assets.

Lieutenant General Kyrylo Budanov, the head of Ukraine's GUR military intelligence agency, later told Ukrainian media that Russia had placed components of an 'experimental' S-500 anti-aircraft missile system in Crimea. Unconfirmed reports from this week suggest Russia may have taken a hit to part of the S-500 system on the peninsula.
