HUR's cyber corps accessed over 4.4 gigabytes (GB) of internal data, including official correspondence, personnel files, home addresses, resumes, purchase records, and closed meeting minutes, a source claimed.

Ukraine’s military intelligence agency (HUR) has gained access to sensitive data of Russia’s strategic aircraft manufacturer Tupolev, a source in HUR told the Kyiv Independent on June 4.

Tupolev, a Soviet-era aerospace firm now fully integrated into Russia’s defense-industrial complex, has been under international sanctions since 2022 for its role in Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Its bombers have been widely used to launch long-range cruise missiles against Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.

According to the source, HUR’s cyber corps accessed over 4.4 gigabytes (GB) of internal data, including official correspondence, personnel files, home addresses, resumes, purchase records, and closed meeting minutes.

    At this point I have to repeat it daily. I’m old enough to remember fearing the Soviet Union. One of the biggest baddies was Ukraine because they were the brain. Russia forgot this and now they have a nation full of highly motivated eggheads looking to do some damage. If Russian satellite orbits suddenly and catastrophically start to degrade, I wouldn’t be surprised.

      I forgot too. I’m like, “isn’t this what Vlad does well? How did this happen?” Good point

    Like a magician, Ukraine continues to pull ace after ace out of their sleeve. It turns out they have so many cards! I can’t wait to see them all.

    Important to remember that digital data can be just as much a strategic target as an air field. Especially as the US reduces its cybersecurity defenses, and completely relies on increasingly incompetent defense contractors like Boeing.
