In 2024, the Defense Forces struck 377 important targets in Russia, including military units, arsenals, workshops of military-industrial complex enterprises, and oil refineries.

This was stated by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi during the forum “Ukraine. Year 2025” forum, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“We are beating the enemy at a distance, increasing strikes on its territory. Military units, arsenals, storage warehouses, workshops of military-industrial complex enterprises, oil refineries, other energy and logistics facilities that Russia uses in the war against us are the targets of our actions. Deep Strike’s strike range deep into Russian territory has already reached 1,700 kilometers. We are preparing new long-range weapons, and they will be used,” Syrskyi promised.

He also said that in 2024, the Unmanned Systems Forces conducted about 130 operations. “In total, 377 targets on Russian territory became the targets of successful complex destruction in 2024,” Syrskyi said.

In addition, the Commander-in-Chief noted that during 2024, the state supplied more than 1 million 300,000 drones to the front.

“This year we are to receive even more. The enemy is fully experiencing the power of our FPV drones. We are now actively working on scaling up fiber optic FPV, which is currently a challenge. Our task is to stay ahead in this technological war,” emphasized Syrskyi.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service, Oleh Ivashchenko, said during the Forum “Ukraine. Year 2025” forum, he said that Russia plans to produce more than 7 million artillery rounds and mines and about 3,000 missiles in 2025.
