The photos were published on Telegram. It is not known exactly where they were taken. They show a mysterious structure: 16 spheres arranged in a row.
Speculation quickly arose. Some claim it might be a new element of Russian electronic warfare. Others do not rule out that it could be an agricultural installation, reports the military-focused portal twz.com.
Near the spheres, what appears to be camouflage netting or some type of tarpaulin can be seen, as well as a cleared area nearby. A truck is visible close by.
Shocking photo of a Ukrainian soldier
The man who shared the photo is Ukrainian soldier Serhii Beskrestnov. This soldier is an expert in radio technology and other military electronics. He publishes the latest developments on this topic, in the context of the war in Ukraine, on Telegram. This time, he admitted that he himself is surprised by what he saw.
"It seemed that I already knew everything the enemy had in terms of technological solutions," he wrote online.
It is often suggested on social media that these could be inflatable spherical antennas or antenna covers, possibly for communication purposes, similar to those produced by GATR Technologies in the United States.
