President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has confirmed that Ukrainian long-range strikes hit two major Russian logistics facilities in the Moscow and Tambov regions, targeting infrastructure used to support Russia’s military-industrial sector, UATV English reports.
In a statement published on social media, Zelenskyy said Ukrainian forces carried out long-range strikes on three directions inside Russian territory, as well as on targets in occupied Ukrainian territory and at sea.
“Today, our long-range sanctions worked in three directions on Russian territory, as well as on our temporarily occupied land and at sea. In response to Russia’s attacks on our civilian infrastructure, cities and communities, two major logistics facilities were struck in the Moscow and Tambov regions, located more than 500 kilometers and around 700 kilometers from the front line,” Zelenskyy said.
According to the president, the facilities were used to support the delivery of sanctioned foreign-made components required for the production of drones and navigation equipment.
Zelenskyy also confirmed that Ukrainian forces struck a Russian oil facility, while medium-range strike systems targeted objectives in the Sea of Azov, the Black Sea and temporarily occupied Crimea.
He thanked personnel from the Unmanned Systems Forces, Special Operations Forces, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and the Defense Intelligence Directorate (HUR) for what he described as the precise and coordinated execution of the operation.
Earlier, Russian authorities reported overnight drone attacks in the Moscow region that triggered fires at an oil depot in Noginsk and at a Wildberries logistics center in Elektrostal. Ukrainian officials have not directly linked those incidents to the operation described by Zelenskyy.
