To spread: Three Chinese satellites of the Yaogan 33 series have fired over the western part of Ukraine. The characteristic point is the fact that it coincided with the implementation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation of massive combined attack in the morning of October 5. It is now known that these spacecraft have flown 9 times above this region between 00:00 by about 11:30 am, reports the Militar portal.

The media analyzed the data of the Heavens Above service, which is engaged in evaluating the movement of artificial satellites. Based on the flight information, except for the three Yaogan 33 (Yagan 33, Yagan 33-03 and Yaogan 33-04) apparatus, the Optical Reconnaissance Satellite Yaogan 34 has flown over Ukraine. The project adds that the scouts of the PRC fly not only over the western regions of Ukraine.

"In general, the orbital parameters allow us to work on Ukraine more than 60 varied satellites of the Yaogan series. They can perform optical, radar and radio electronic intelligence," the text reads. Moreover, all Yaogan 33 series are moved in low orbits at a height of up to 700 kilometers above the surface. This location allows the satellites to rotate the Earth with a frequency every 90 minutes. "Any information about the capabilities of the Yaogan 33 satellites.

According to the official Chinese position, satellites of this type are used for scientific experiments, land research, as well as prevention of natural disasters. However, it is in fact considered to be military intelligence satellites, which are equipped with a synthesion with a radar. indicates "militaristic". The media adds that the Yaogan 33 satellites, launched in 2022–2023, have been replaced by the first generation of Yaogan-1, which have worked since 2006.

It was the first prototypes that had a radar system SAR, capable of taking pictures of Earth with a resolution of 5 or 20 meters depending on the observation mode. "Given more than 15 years, the differences between Yaogan-1 and Yagan 33 satellites, it can be argued that new satellites have much better characteristics that are probably approximated to modern" Western "intelligence satellites," journalists say, adding that they have been unknown to Ukraine.

Subsequently, Ukrinform journalists appealed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China to comment on the flight of satellites over the Ukrainian territory. The foreign policy department of the Middle Kingdom reported that they were "unknown [this] situation", which was mentioned by journalists.

) Was always open, honest, objective and impartial, which is widely recognized by the international community," China's Foreign Ministry replied. Earlier, Focus reported how the PRC has its own program about the United States. China has announced a successful test and deployment of the prototype of the global missile defense platform, which, according to developers, is able to track up to 1000 launches of missiles around the world.
