Strikes by the Ukrainian Armed Forces have crippled nearly half of Russia's missile production
Systematic attacks by Ukrainian drones on the aggressor nation’s critical infrastructure have led to an unprecedented decline in the performance of Russia’s defense industry and energy sector.
According to the latest data, Russia has already lost about 40% of its monthly missile production and nearly half of its oil export capacity.
Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Center for Countering Disinformation (CCD), reported that precision strikes on logistics hubs and factories have significantly undermined Moscow’s ability to replenish its stockpiles of precision-guided munitions.
In particular, the facilities of the Votkinsk plant, where Iskander ballistic missiles and the latest Oreshnik-class designs are manufactured, came under fire.
In addition to assembly shops, facilities specializing in the manufacture of microelectronics were successfully targeted. This creates a critical shortage of components, without which modern missile systems become uncontrollable scrap.
“Russia has already lost nearly 40% of its monthly missile production as a result of Ukrainian strikes,” Kovalenko emphasized.
The consequences for the oil sector, which is the main source of funding for the aggression, have been no less devastating.
Due to damage to terminals and refineries, oil exports have fallen by 45%.
A separate achievement of Ukrainian forces has been raids on at least five chemical industry plants in the Russian Federation. These enterprises are key links in the chain of ammunition and explosive production.
Repeated attacks on these facilities are effectively paralyzing shell production, an impact already being felt in certain sectors of the front.
Drones again attacked the port of Ust-Luga in the Leningrad region of the Russian Federation.
Drones attacked industrial facilities in the Samara region and Yaroslavl.
In occupied Alchevsk, drones attacked a metallurgical plant.
