As reported November 14, 2024 Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Ukraine to Israel Evgeniy Korniychuk at the fifth Kiev Jewish Forum (Kyiv Jewish Forum), “Ukraine is at the final stage of implementing the Israeli early warning system”.
NANews Israel News illuminates in detail, how Israel “actively transfers” to Ukraine, and Ukraine “actively receives” from Israel everything needed to create a system that can timely identify airborne threats, including missiles, aircraft and drones, as well as their trajectory and final target.
Minister of Defense Benny Ganz first announced Israel's intention to supply the system to Ukraine in October 2022 last year.
Minister of Foreign Affairs Eli Cohen promised during his visit to Kyiv in February 2023that the system will be activated within six months.

June 3, 2023 — The Israeli military, together with the Ukrainian Armed Forces, has already begun working on a missile attack warning system in Poland. — Eli Cohen.
June 8, 2023 — Israeli air warning system to be deployed in Ukraine by September — according to information from a Ukrainian official, The Times of Israel reported.
June 22, 2023 — Minister Galant briefed Minister Reznikov on positive progress in developing a vital civilian early warning system for Ukraine
October 7, 2023 — The Israeli early warning system for missile danger is already being tested in Kyiv – Ambassador of Ukraine to Israel Korneychuk.
April 5, 2024 — “Elements of the Israeli early warning system in Kyiv are adapting, adapting, adapting …” – answered the Kyiv City State Administration

How does Israel's early warning system work?
The most important part of the system is the use three-dimensional radars manufactured in Israel. These devices are already actively used by the Armed Forces of Ukraine for airspace control. Korniychuk emphasized that this technology is already working in Ukraine and has proven its effectiveness.
“This is not a secret. These radars are already in use by the military today, and they are quite suitable for purchasing in large quantities if necessary,” – noted the Ambassador of Ukraine to Israel Yevgeny Korniychuk.
The early warning system not only helps to identify threats, but also allows you to quickly respond to them, which is of great importance in war conditions, when every minute counts.
Strategic cooperation: Ukraine and Israel against a common enemy
Korniychuk also noted that Ukraine and Israel are on the same front line in the fight against a common enemy. In this context, both countries cooperate closely, not only in the security field, but also in other aspects. The ambassador emphasized that the wars in Ukraine and Israel are “coordinated from one center,” referring to the threat from the Russian Federation, Iran and North Korea. This makes the alliance even more important for both countries since their allies in the global context also coincide.
“It looks like our wars are coordinated from one center, and we have common allies” – added Korniychuk, emphasizing the importance of partnership.
According to the ambassador, Israeli cooperation with Ukraine opens up new opportunities for further strengthening of defense and interaction with other countries, such as Saudi Arabia, in matters of security and diplomacy.
The Ukrainian army is already using Israeli developments
Particular attention should be paid to the fact that part of the system is already operating on the territory of Ukraine. This is not just a technical process, but concrete steps aimed at protecting civilians and military personnel. Israeli 3D radars are already used for early warning, allowing Ukraine to quickly monitor airborne threats and prevent possible strikes.
“The early warning system is now operating in Ukraine, and, if necessary, Israel is ready to supply additional volumes of radars for the needs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces,” – added Korniychuk.
This was made possible thanks to Israel's decision to provide Ukraine with the most advanced technologies to protect against airborne threats. In the future, it is expected that the system will develop and strengthen, which will allow Ukraine to defend its territory even more effectively.
Benefits of an early warning system
The main advantages of the Israeli early warning system are as follows:
- Timely detection of threats — the system allows you to identify dangerous air objects at an early stage.
- Predicting threat trajectory — allows you to calculate where a missile, plane or drone is heading and quickly take action.
- Technical readiness — the system is already operating on the territory of Ukraine and is fully ready for expansion and the purchase of additional equipment.
Impact on the security of Ukraine
The early warning system plays a key role in Ukraine's defense strategy against air attacks. This not only increases the chances of preventing attacks on civilian cities and important military installations, but also has a moral impact, showing Ukrainians that their security is a high priority in the international arena.
According to Korniychuk, the creation and implementation of such a system also strengthens Ukraine’s defense capability, helping it not only defend itself, but also actively counter threats.
Opportunities for future cooperation
As the ambassador noted, the early warning system is only part of broader cooperation between Ukraine and Israel in the field of security. In the future, it is possible to deepen cooperation in the field of intelligence, cybersecurity and other high-tech solutions that will help both countries effectively combat threats.
NANews Israel News They also report that cooperation between Ukraine and Israel in these areas is of strategic importance for both countries, especially in the context of growing global tension.
Table: Main components of an early warning system
| System component | Description | Importance for Ukraine |
|---|---|---|
| 3D radars | Israeli radars for detecting airborne threats. | Provide early warning of missile, air and drone threats. |
| Analysis software | Technologies for fast data analysis and threat trajectory calculations. | Allows Ukraine to quickly take measures to protect the population. |
| Integration with the Ukrainian Army | The system will be integrated with military forces to enhance the response. | Strengthens Ukraine's defense capability and increases its defense capabilities. |
Conclusion
The launch of the Israeli early warning system in Ukraine is an important step towards strengthening the country's security and protecting its citizens. Israel, in turn, continues to provide significant assistance to Ukraine, providing advanced technologies to combat air threats. It is important to note that Ukraine and Israel continue to strengthen their strategic ties in the fight against a common enemy, and the creation of an early warning system is just one example of such cooperation.
Ukraine is already in the final stages of implementing this technology, and it will play an important role in protecting against air attacks, which will certainly increase the level of security for Ukrainian citizens.
NANews Israel News will continue to monitor developments and highlight further steps in cooperation between the two countries in the field of defense and security.
