Kyiv - May 4, 2023

   Last year, Israel agreed to share technologies with Ukraine last although it postponed fulfilling Kiev's requests to supply it with weapons.

In the interest of the Israeli government maintaining good relations with Moscow, Israeli officials did not provide details about the missile monitoring system that it is developing for Ukraine.

The system with data from Ukrainian radars is currently being tested in the capital, ambassador korniychuk said.

Reuters quoted the Ukrainian official as saying that the system "allows the identification of various objects, including ballistic missiles, and makes calculations to find out their destination, and this basically allows us to close certain parts of the country instead of the entire country," referring to orders to take shelter from air strikes issued when they are attacked.

He pointed out that the system, when completed, will warn residents of areas that are about to be bombed by missiles or Russian drones, either by sounding sirens or by sending a warning on mobile phones.
