YEREVAN, July 8 – Sputnik. Russian air defense systems have destroyed 903 Ukrainian drones and eight guided aviation bombs in one day. This was reported by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
According to the agency, the Russian military also struck logistics centers, fuel-energy and transport infrastructure facilities used by the Ukrainian armed forces, ammunition depots, as well as temporary deployment points of Ukrainian formations and foreign mercenaries in 157 regions.
In addition, last night, the Russian armed forces delivered a group strike with precision weapons on the objects of Ukraine's military-industrial complex in Kyiv. The Ministry of Defense reported that the strike on the military-industrial complex is a response to Kyiv's terrorist attacks against Russia's civilian infrastructure.
"The strike resulted in the destruction of the industrial enterprise of 'Samsung-Ukraine,' where the production and storage of components for the ground-based FP-5 'Flamingo' cruise missiles were being carried out," the statement said.
According to the Russian military department, a workshop for assembling large and medium-range drones was also hit.
Recall that on the early morning of February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that he had decided to launch a military special operation against Ukraine, as the LPR and DPR had requested assistance.
The combat operations continue to this day.
The Ukrainian military regularly shells and attacks the border regions of the Russian Federation in various ways (including with UAVs), particularly in the Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh regions.
