Sources The research and analysis group InfoLight.UA in the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU) confirm information from the Kyiv Post about the successful operation of the special unit”Chemist” against the Russian military base in Syria.

According to Kyiv Post sources, the attack took place on the morning of 15 September on the southeastern outskirts of Aleppo. The journalists have exclusive video footage confirming the operation.

According to the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, the attacked base was used by the Russian military to produce and test attack UAVs, as well as for the creation of”camouflaged improvised explosive devices”. The facility also stored warheads for these devices.

The video obtained by the editorial office shows a flag of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine not far from the garage, which, according to sources, was used as a Russian base. Shortly thereafter , a massive explosion occurred at the site , followed by the detonation of ammunition.

Explosive experts who analysed the video at the request of InfoLight.UA, believe that the explosion was most likely caused by a rifle bullet rather than an RPG shot. The bullet may have hit the explosives, which, according to the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, had been previously planted inside the facility.

As a reminder, that at the end of July 2024 , our sources in the intelligence services reported another operation by the”Chemist” unit of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine in Syria. At that time, the target of the attack was Russian military equipment at the Kuwait City airfield , located east of Aleppo.
