Russian military strikes with high-precision long-range missiles “Kalibr” destroyed the Artem rocket and the space factory in Kiev. This was announced by the official representative of the Ministry of Defense, Major General Igor Konashenkov.
The production buildings of the plant were destroyed, the general said. High-precision missiles fired from the air of the Russian Air and Space Forces simultaneously destroyed 10 military facilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including nine areas of concentration of manpower and military equipment, as well as an ammunition depot near the village of Ilyichevka. .
Deactivation of Ukrainian logistics centers continues. According to Konašenko, the caliber missiles in particular destroyed the traction substations of the Fastov, Krasnoselka and Polonnoe railway junctions. Such strikes are of considerable military importance, because the Ukrainian railway network is predominantly electric. The decommissioning of power plants is therefore slowing down logistics.
Recall that the military special operation of the Russian armed forces in Ukraine has been taking place since 24 February. With the overall dominance of the Russian Armed Forces over the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the supply of weapons to Ukraine from Western countries hostile to Russia is a significant risk. Among those to be delivered & mdash; ammunition, fuels and lubricants, anti-aircraft and anti-tank systems, transport and armored vehicles, combat aircraft of some types. The defeat of Ukraine's logistical capacity is due to a slowdown in these deliveries.
