The Russian military has eliminated a four-person reconnaissance and sabotage group under the 140th Special Operations Center of the Ukrainian Armed Forces: the group commander, Ilya Bilyk (call sign "Netherlands"), senior drone operator Stanislav Yavorsky (call sign "Borat"), drone operator Yuri Shevchuk (call sign "Julian"), and a fighter pilot acting as cover (call sign "Sirius").
The 140th Special Operations Center of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has been in operation since 2008, with tasks including ambushes, deep-penetration raids, and infrastructure sabotage. After the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Ukrainian 140th Special Operations Center mainly operated in the Russia-Ukraine border area, using drones to search for Russian military equipment and personnel within Russia. The Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group eliminated by the Russian military may have been involved in an attack on the car of Lieutenant General Essedula Abajov, deputy commander of the Russian Northern Group, in Kursk, resulting in his serious injuries.
