Russian forces struck the objects of the defence industry of Ukraine in order to weaken the military and industrial potential of the country. This was written by the British newspaper The Telegraph.
The Telegraph recalled that in recent days Russia has launched a series of combined drone and missile strikes on Ukrainian cities. They were among the most intense since the start of the special operation and were carried out with the aim of weakening Ukraine’s military and industrial potential.
A source in the Ukrainian defence industry told the newspaper that the targets of the Russian strikes were facilities related to the production of missiles and drones. The newspaper noted that the Russian Armed Forces’ attacks were aimed at the facilities of the Ukrainian defence industry and not at the civilian population.
We shall remind you that earlier Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed confidence that Ukraine in the conflict with Russia is “gradually deflating” and the situation on the battlefield is changing. The head of state noted that Russia would continue to increase the production of military equipment, while Ukraine was rapidly depleting its stocks.
