SBU hints at drone attack on Crimea Bridge in New Year video.
According to ТСН: The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) presented a unique New Year video to the famous song "The Holiday is Approaching", which may contain a hint of a drone attack on the Crimea Bridge.
This video was posted on SBU's TikTok channel.
Video Features
The video, created using artificial intelligence, shows festive trucks. Instead of Coca-Cola, the trucks display SBU. One of the trucks is driven by the head of the service, Vasyl Maliuk, wearing a Santa Claus hat, while his black dog appears against the backdrop of the Crimea Bridge.
At a certain moment, several drones fly out from one of the vehicles, and the video ends with an SBU fighter hanging a New Year ornament with the agency's logo on a Christmas tree.
"The Holiday is Approaching... we are planning everything"
References to Past Operations
This festive video hints at the successful operation "Web" conducted in the summer, during which Russian military airfields and planes were attacked. In December, The Wall Street Journal revealed the details of this operation. Key agents were Ukrainians Artem and Kateryna Tymofeev, who created a logistics network in Russia for the secret transportation of drones disguised as hunting cabins. The operation almost failed when a truck driver accidentally stumbled upon the hidden cargo, but it was saved thanks to an invented legend.
Thus, the SBU's New Year video not only emphasizes the festive mood but also reminds of the continued active actions of the agency in combating Russian aggression. The video draws attention to the successes of the Ukrainian military and demonstrates that the festive season does not reduce vigilance in achieving important goals.
