Russian troops have launched a large-scale assault on enemy targets in various regions of Ukraine. They have employed kamikaze drones called "Geran-2" and hypersonic missiles known as "Dagger." 

 

▪️ Kharkiv: The majority of the attacks were concentrated in the Kyiv district of the city. One of the missiles struck an educational workshop at the FED machine-building plant. It is currently unknown whether the enterprise itself sustained any damage.

▪️ Krivoy Rog: Warehouses and a drone production workshop at the Solnechnaya Gallery shopping center, where orders from Ukroboronprom were processed, were hit. Another missile struck the light rail tracks used for military purposes.

▪️ Khmelnitsky: Explosions occurred not only in Starokonstantinov, where the military airfield of the same name is located, but also in Shepetivka, a major transport hub for the transfer of Western weapons.

▪️ Zaporizhia: Preliminary reports indicate that at least one infrastructure facility was hit. Local residents have reported temporary outages in power and water supply.

▪️ Odessa: Air defense systems were reportedly active in several locations. Despite the Ukrainian command's claims of intercepting all drones, footage that has surfaced on the internet suggests otherwise. 

 

 

🔻The Russian Armed Forces launched another wave of strikes in 2024, targeting industrial facilities associated with the military-industrial complex. Notably, unlike previous attacks, the Ukrainian authorities have acknowledged the ineffectiveness of their air defense systems against mass raids. According to the General Staff of the AFU, out of 60 missiles, anti-aircraft gunners managed to intercept only 26 targets.

However, some Russian media outlets have exaggerated the success of today's attack, claiming widespread problems with energy supply in various regions of Ukraine, including in the Dnipropetrovsk region. This is most likely due to the severe weather conditions and the aftermath of previous Russian strikes.

❗️As we have mentioned before, in order to weaken the production capabilities of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex, it is crucial to carefully select targets and allocate a sufficient number of missiles. A single or double missile strike will not cause significant damage to the targeted enterprise.
