Ukraine destroys $60M Russian radar in Belgorod

Ukraine's 429th Achilles Brigade destroyed a Russian Kasta-2E early-warning radar near the village of Volotovo in Belgorod Oblast, approximately 80 km inside Russian territory. The $60 million system was first detected by a Ukrainian reconnaissance drone, then struck by a kamikaze drone. The Kasta-2E is a critical air-defense radar used to detect low-flying targets, and its loss creates a significant gap in Russia's radar coverage in the region. This strike demonstrates Ukraine's continued ability to conduct precision deep strikes against high-value Russian military assets.
