I worked in telecoms and mobile phone signals are encrypted. Very difficult to intercept and decrypt. Not impossible but very difficult.
One of the first things the rusians did when they invaded was put up stingray devices. no reason why the ukr. can't do similar. According to the wiki listing for stingray, it can carry out a man in the middle attack that includes capturing a devices encryption key.
