The SBU said it also hit a factory in Penza which, according to him, supplies the Russian military-industrial complex with electronic products.
At the beginning of Russia’s large -scale invasion in 2022, Ukraine had no response to Moscow’s vast long -range attack capacity, but has since built a long -range kamikaze fleet capable of transporting explosive warheads for many hundreds of kilometers.
The Russian Ministry of Defense said in its daily report that its defense units overturned a total of 338 Ukrainian drones at night. Their reports do not inform how many Ukrainian drones have been released at one point.
