Investing.com -- Ukraine launched drone strikes against a Russian fighter aircraft plant in the Moscow region and a missile production facility in the Tula region, causing explosions and fires at both locations, according to Ukrainian military statements on Friday.
The Ukrainian military said on Telegram that the aviation facility in Lukhovitsy, about 135 km southeast of Moscow, produced MiG fighters. The other target was the Instrument Design Bureau, which specializes in producing anti-aircraft missiles and missile-gun systems.
"Defense forces continue to take all steps to undermine the military and economic potential of the Russian occupiers and force Russia to stop its armed aggression against Ukraine," Ukraine’s military stated.
The Russian defense ministry reported that 155 Ukrainian drones were downed between 11 p.m. on Thursday and 7 a.m. on Friday, including 11 that were headed toward Moscow.
Dmitry Milyaev, Tula regional governor, said on Telegram that one person was killed and another injured in the Ukrainian attack on the region, which is located around 200 km south of Moscow.
Both Russia and Ukraine have conducted frequent aerial attacks on targets far behind the front lines where fighting has continued for nearly three-and-a-half years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
