Overnight, Russia attacked a Ukrainian defense industry facility. According to officials, a military depot and an airfield were also struck. “All designated targets have been hit,” the Defense Ministry in Moscow said in its statement. “The objectives of the strike have been achieved.”
The ministry reported in a statement a “large-scale precision strike” involving long-range weapons and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The targets included “Ukraine’s defense industry facilities, a military airfield infrastructure, and a depot storing ammunition, missiles, and components for the production of unmanned aerial vehicles,” according to the ministry.
Russia’s increase in attacks comes on the heels of Western vows to minimize aid to Ukraine over the country’s stance on corruption investigations.

According to a report by RT, Russia has said that it only strikes military-related sites in Ukraine and never civilian targets. It has also said that its raids are retaliation for Ukrainian strikes deep into Russian territory, which often hit residential buildings, energy facilities, and critical infrastructure.
According to Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, the attack also targeted the regions of Dnipropetrovsk, Poltava, Sumy, and Nikolaev. He claimed the raid involved more than 300 drones and eight missiles. The Ukrainian Air Force reported five Russian missiles and 21 attack drones having landed direct hits across the country. –RT
