Ukrainian forces have expanded their long-range strike capabilities against targets deep within Russian territory. In August 2026, Ukrainian leadership announced a strike on a petrochemical industrial facility in Tobolsk, Siberia, located more than 2,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian border. Officials stated the target was selected to disrupt the production of raw materials essential for the Russian military.

By September 2026, operations continued with a strike on the Tsymbulova UAV base in Russia’s Oryol region. Located approximately 180km from the border, the facility is used for launching Geran-series jet drones. Analysts noted that while the vast size of the 2.5 square kilometer complex presents targeting challenges, the use of long-range munitions like the M39A1 Block I ATACMS variant remains a factor in such operations.
