Ukraine strikes Russian aerospace and missile infrastructure
Ukrainian forces have conducted a series of deep strikes against strategic Russian targets, including aerospace, military, and energy infrastructure. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported that Ukrainian forces used FP-5 Flamingo cruise missiles to strike the Progress rocket and space center in the Samara region, a facility under Roscosmos that produces electronics and space launch components.
Additional strikes were reported at the Savasleyka airbase in the Nizhny Novgorod region, which houses MiG-31K fighters capable of launching Kinzhal ballistic missiles. Ukraine also claimed to have targeted an oil facility in Ust-Luga, near Saint Petersburg.
In other operations, the Ukrainian military reported striking the Kombinat Kamenskij factory in the Rostov region, which produces solid fuel for Uragan, Smerch, and Tornado-S rocket systems. Furthermore, the Ukrainian Navy reported hitting the Bastion coastal missile system near Sevastopol in Crimea, a system used for launching Onyx and Zircon missiles. Russian authorities in Sevastopol reported air raid alerts lasting over two hours and noted that air defenses intercepted 27 drones.
