00:00A group of Ukrainian hackers announced they had obtained a large set of documents.
00:05classified information about Russian ships and submarines.
00:09As part of Operation Poseidon, scientific and technical materials were stolen.
00:14and design related to approximately 70 Russian naval projects under development or
00:20modernization, according to The National Interest.
00:24According to published reports, access to the documents was achieved after breaching
00:29several Russian companies and research centers linked to naval technology.
00:34These include the design offices Rubin and Malahit, as well as Electro entities
00:40Pribor and Oquean Pribor.
00:42The files contained information about the Project 636.3 Barshabianca submarines,
00:49Project 949 AM Antey and Project 955M Borey, as well as on the Project 223.500 frigates.
00:59According to the hackers, some of the files were classified as secret and top secret.
01:04secret. The documents included technical specifications, schematics, operating instructions,
01:11system algorithms, test results, and data on equipment reliability.
01:16The group claimed to have obtained technical specifications, operating manuals, and structural diagrams.
01:23and functional programs, algorithms and test programs, according to the published report.
01:29The most serious problem for the Russian Navy could arise in the long term. The schemes obtained
01:36They could reveal characteristics of the ships' design, the arrangement of the systems
01:41Internal and technical vulnerabilities. This could allow adversaries to determine
01:47with greater precision how to detect and engage Russian ships and submarines. Furthermore, the
01:53Documents could reveal the extent to which the Russian defense industry relies on equipment
01:58and foreign components. This information could help identify supply chains
02:04and increase the pressure of sanctions. However, the direct impact is likely to be
02:10The infiltration into the war in Ukraine is considerably less. Most of it
02:15The Russian fleet operates outside the Black Sea, and the Black Sea Fleet has already suffered losses
02:20significant.
02:22In addition, Ukrainian Defense Intelligence released data on 38 vessels that,
02:28According to him, they participate in helping Russia circumvent international sanctions, export
02:34energy products and support military logistics, the agency reported. According to the JUR,
02:41The vessels operate under the flags of Barbados, Russia, Cameroon, Panama, Belize,
02:47Liberia, Sri Lanka, Türkiye, Tanzania, Sao Tome and Principe, Hong Kong and Palau. Of the 38
02:5628 vessels identified are directly involved in the export of oil and petroleum products
03:03and Russian liquefied natural gas, in addition to supplying fuel to sanctioned tankers belonging to
03:10to Russia's so-called shadow fleet, and transport Ukrainian grain from territories
03:15temporarily occupied, according to the Intelligence Agency. The JUR indicated that those 28 vessels
03:22They are already subject to sanctions imposed by the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Ukraine.
03:29The Intelligence Agency also identified 10 oil tankers that are not currently sanctioned,
03:35but which are supposedly used to transport Russian oil to international markets,
03:40and deliver gasoline and diesel to Russia.
