attack on a Russian spy plane in Belarus without approval from the Ukrainian government, Breaking Points journalist Saagar Enjeti reported citing leaked documents.
The attack saw a drone inflict minor damage to a Russian A-50 early
warning and control aircraft stationed at the Machulishchy air base in
Belarus last month. Belarusian authorities arrested a number of
suspects, one allegedly linked to the Ukrainian secret police
organization, the SBU, which Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko
accused of orchestrating the attack with help from the CIA.
The Pentagon, however, assessed that the SBU carried out the attack
without seeking the approval of President Vladimir Zelensky or his
officials, ..... The alleged Pentagon documents containing the assessment
were leaked on social media last week, and have since received
considerable media attention.
The report on the plane attack raises the question of “how much control does Zelensky actually have” over his own intelligence apparatus, Enjeti said. “Perhaps
this lends credence to the idea that there are a bunch of rogue
elements inside the [Ukrainian] government that are basically doing
whatever they want,” he continued..." RT
