Ukraine attacked the Russian factory producing missiles

This information was reported by the press service of the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR).

On October 1, 2023, as a result of the strike on the Smolensk Aviation Plant, the production process of X-59 missiles of various modifications was disrupted.

“According to confirmed data, three out of four drones hit the target, causing significant damage to the production facilities of the aggressor state’s military enterprise”, the statement said.

The X-59 missile (in the modification X-59MK2), classified as “air-to-surface”, with a range of up to 280 km, is one of the types of missiles that the Russian aerospace forces most frequently use to attack military and civilian objects in Ukraine. The use of such weapons has the greatest impact on the Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions. It’s worth noting that on September 16, the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed three enemy boats and an observation post in the south.
