Russian aerospace facilities and air base hit by explosions

Explosions and fires were reported in Russia following overnight strikes targeting aerospace and military infrastructure. In the Samara region, explosions occurred at an industrial site. OSINT analysis suggests the impact may have hit either the Aviakor Aviation Plant or the Progress Rocket Space Centre, a major Roscosmos facility involved in the design and testing of Soyuz-2 launch vehicles.

Additionally, reports indicate an attack on the Savasleyka military air base in the Nizhny Novgorod region. This base is significant as it houses MiG-31K fighter jets capable of deploying Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles. The strikes are part of ongoing Ukrainian efforts to target military infrastructure deep within Russian territory to degrade combat capabilities.
