The Security Service’s long-range strikes and special operations are gradually offsetting the disparity in military, technological, and mobilisation resources between Ukraine and russia, bringing a just peace closer. Acting Head of the Security Service of Ukraine, Major General Yevheniy Khmara, made this statement during the opening of the exhibition project The Path of Heroes: In Memory of Symon Petliura at the National Museum of Ukrainian History.

‘Through our asymmetric operations and special measures, we are gradually overcoming the imbalance on the battlefield and bringing closer the peace that the entire country so eagerly awaits,’ major general Yevheniy Khmara emphasized.

Over the past week alone, the SSU carried out several long-range drone strikes against key enemy logistics facilities, military enterprises, depots, and bases located both in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and deep within the aggressor state.

In particular, the SSU struck the Metafrax Chemicals plant, located approximately 1,700 kilometres from Ukraine’s border, as well as the Vtorovo production and dispatch station in russia’s Vladimir region. Meanwhile, the SSU’s Special Operations Centre Alfa targeted the FSB’s headquarters operating in the temporarily occupied territories.

During the exhibition opening, Yevheniy Khmara also stressed that historical experience remains invaluable in modern warfare and that Ukrainian defenders should draw lessons from the past.

‘It is important to build bridges between those who defended our state over the centuries and the present day. Their example inspires us to continue their cause. The Security Service of Ukraine and all components of the Defence Forces are making every effort to be worthy of their memory,’ he emphasised.

The Acting Head of the SSU thanked the organisers for preserving this historical heritage. The exhibition features more than 200 artefacts illustrating the course of Ukraine’s liberation struggle during the first quarter of the twentieth century. Most of these items are being exhibited in Ukraine for the first time.

The exhibition includes artefacts from the collections of the Military History Museum and the archives of the Ukrainian Free Academy of Sciences in Canada. These materials were preserved by Ukrainian emigrants with the intention of returning them to the Homeland after the restoration of Ukraine’s independence.
