He added that confirmation was received, with 100% certainty, of the missile's destruction.
"The destruction was complete. It was a very successful operation. This was reported exclusively to the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, the President of Ukraine, and was also known to the presidents of several other countries," Malyuk said.
According to him, the operation was carried out "when the name Oreshnik was unknown to the general public, not in use, and russians were not particularly threatening with it at that time."
"If I am not mistaken, we carried out this successful operation two summers ago," the head of the SSU clarified.
Earlier Defense Express reported that Ukraine troops had neutralized Pyongyang's Type-75 MLRS.
