Ukrainian drones extend reach, strike deep into Russia
A representative of the Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR), Andriy Yusov, revealed that Ukrainian drones can strike targets in Russia as far as 1,243 miles away.
Ukrainian long-range drones have gained the ability to attack targets in Russia at distances of up to 1,243 miles. This information was provided by Andriy Yusov from the Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR), as quoted by Ukrinform.
- From what we can tell, and it's no longer a secret, Ukrainian long-range unmanned aerial vehicles can hypothetically operate up to 2,000 kilometres [1,243 miles] - said Yusov.
Attacks deep into Russia
He added that Kyiv "neither confirms nor denies" reports of Ukraine's involvement in incidents of various "explosions" in Russia. Yusov stated, "I can only say that there is a reason for the explosions there," indicating that the attacks occur at facilities related to the Russian military-industrial complex and the army.
For months, various parts of Russia have been experiencing drone attacks on energy plants, refineries, and other military targets. These actions are part of a broader strategy by Ukraine to weaken Russia's military and logistical potential.
In recent days, Ukrainian air forces attacked a company producing rocket fuel in the Rostov region of western Russia, as informed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Drones also attacked the military airport in the city of Voronezh, reported the independent Russian channel Astra.
