Thus, during the week, fighters of the Special Operations Center "A" of the Security Service of Ukraine destroyed a number of targets, in particular: 16 tanks, 5 self-propelled artillery installations, 14 armored combat vehicles, 16 enemy trucks, three Murom surveillance systems, one the TOS-1A Solntsepek MLRS, two SAM systems – the Tor and the Buk, more than one and a half hundred killed and wounded occupiers and other equipment.
But separately, it is important to emphasize that the Zoopark counter-battery radar system was among the affected targets. This is quite a valuable target, both taking into account its significance and the number of destroyed such radars during the russia-Ukraine war in general.

In particular, according to Oryx, since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, the occupiers have lost at least 9 radars of the Zoopark radar system, of which two are 1L219 radars of the Zoopark system (of which one was destroyed and one was damaged), and seven more - 1L261 radar of the Zoopark-1M radar system (three destroyed, two damaged, two more – captured as trophies).
In particular, one of the 1L261 radars of the Defense Forces of Ukraine was given a trophy during the liberation of Kharkiv region back in 2022, and this is actually a valuable trophy, because it opens up the opportunity to assess the real capabilities of this counter-battery radar.
The russians lost one of their radars to the Zoopark radar system in a comical situation, when the radar was disabled, because the occupiers simply did not calculate the height of the bridge under which they wanted to carry their radar system through.
