The Ukrainian military announced that it had bombed a Russian long-range drone production site in Tatarstan, central Russia, damaging its final assembly line.
The Ukrainian military confirmed in a statement that the final assembly line for drones was damaged, adding that the plant's production capacity is 300 drones per day.
The military added that the strike, carried out by Ukrainian drone forces and other units, caused explosions near the facility, located 1,054 kilometers from the Ukrainian border.
It noted that the consequences of the strike are being investigated, and that explosions have been confirmed in the targeted area.
The exchange of drone attacks between the two sides has become routine in the context of the ongoing conflict. Reports of losses on both sides of the crisis are conflicting, with each side claiming to have inflicted heavy losses on the other, but the accuracy of this information cannot be independently verified due to the ongoing fighting.
