Russian missile once hit Intelligence Directorate building in Kyiv, Budanov reveals for the first time

Budanov told about this in the A Year documentary dedicated to the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion.

According to the military intelligence chief, a Russian missile hit the Intelligence Directorate building on Rybalskyi island. Budanov did not specify when exactly this happened. At the same time, the head of military intelligence noted that he likes the fact that Russia is hunting him.

"This is a degree of recognition, it shows that I am doing my job properly," Budanov said.

He also assured that he is not afraid of such threats in his work. 

"I am a religious person and I am afraid only of God's punishment. I am not afraid of some sort of Russia," Budanov said.

• On February 24, Kyrylo Budanov said that at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the Russian plan was to land quickly in Hostomel airfield and enter Kyiv.
