This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
As part of measures to reduce the offensive capabilities of the Russian aggressor, Ukrainian units used Ukrainian-made missiles to destroy the Atlant Aero enterprise in the city of Taganrog, Rostov Region, Russia.
The enterprise carries out a full cycle of design, manufacturing, and testing of Molniya-type strike and reconnaissance drones, and also produces components for Orion UAVs.
The General Staff notes that the destruction of this facility will reduce the enemy’s capabilities to produce drones and weaken the Russian Federation’s ability to strike civilian targets on the territory of Ukraine.
