In the Moscow region of the Russian Federation, a factory producing combat units for Shahed-type UAVs has been hit.
According to Ukrinform, this was reported on Facebook by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
As part of efforts to reduce Russia’s ability to carry out air strikes, on July 4, units of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in cooperation with other components of the Defense Forces, struck the Scientific Research Institute of Applied Chemistry (Sergiev Posad, Moscow region of the Russian Federation).
Currently, the enterprise manufactures thermobaric warheads for Shahed-type UAVs and is an important link in the Russian Federation’s armed aggression against Ukraine.
The direct hit on the target has been confirmed. A fire and heavy smoke were recorded in the area of the facility.
The results of the strike are being clarified, the General Staff noted.
As reported by Ukrinform, air defense forces neutralized 478 air attack weapons, which the Russians used to strike Ukraine from the evening of July 3 to the morning of July 4.
