Ukraine's forces hit Russian Nebo-U radar in Krasnodar Krai, worth $100 million

Ukraine's defense forces struck a Russian 55Zh6U Nebo-U radar station near Mahry in Russia's Krasnodar Krai on the night of October 16, 2026, according to the General Staff. The equipment is valued at approximately $100 million. The attack caused a fire at the site. The Nebo-U is a long-range three-coordinate radar system designed to detect and track aircraft, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles, and its destruction reduces Russia's ability to monitor airspace. The General Staff stated that strikes on key Russian military targets are ongoing. Since early 2026, Russian army losses have reached 350,260 personnel, with total losses since the full-scale invasion exceeding 1.5 million.
