#Repost @ukraine.ua with @use.repost_ . . . Ukraine’s long-range capabilities have reached a new milestone. Ukraine’s Defence Forces have struck another facility in Russia’s oil refining industry, this time in Tobolsk, Siberia, over 2,500 kilometres away.

For the first time in its history, Russia no longer has a secure strategic rear. Ukraine’s growing long-range capabilities are bringing more of the aggressor state’s war-supporting infrastructure within reach.

There will be more Ukrainian deep strikes. Their purpose is clear: to make Russia understand that continuing its war comes at a growing cost – and that peace is the only option.

“The Voronezh Semiconductor Plant, allegedly a producer of electronics for Russian Iskander and Kh-101 missiles, as well as for the Pantsir S-1 air defense system, was the main target of the strike, the General Staff wrote on Facebook.” ~ @kyivindependent_official 🇺🇦👏💙💛🙏🇺🇦

#Repost [screenshot from video] @kyivindependent_official . . . A large electronics factory producing parts for advanced Russian missile systems has been struck by Ukrainian forces in the Russian city of Voronezh, Ukraine’s General Staff reported on June 22.

The Voronezh Semiconductor Plant, allegedly a producer of electronics for Russian Iskander and Kh-101 missiles, as well as for the Pantsir S-1 air defense system, was the main target of the strike, the General Staff wrote on Facebook.

Voronezh Oblast Governor Aleksandr Gusev reported a missile threat in the region at 11:40 a.m. local time. Within an hour, photos and videos showing large plumes of smoke rising above Voronezh and heavy damage to a facility quickly identified as the semiconductor plant emerged on social media.

Without mentioning any successful hits, Gusev said that three people had been reported injured in the strike. More videos emerging from the city showed collateral damage to residential areas.

#Repost @kyivindependent_official with @use.repost ・・・ Ukraine struck Russian radar systems and an S-400 air defense launcher in occupied Crimea overnight on March 15, Ukraine’s General Staff reported.

According to the statement, Ukrainian defense forces hit the 59N6-E “Protivnik” and 73E6 “Parol” radar stations near the village of Liubknekhivka in Russian-occupied Crimea.

The Protivnik radar is a long-range surveillance system designed to detect and track aircraft, cruise missiles, and ballistic targets at high altitudes. The Parol system is used to identify aircraft as friend or foe within Russia’s air defense network.

Ukrainian forces also struck a launcher belonging to an S-400 “Triumf” air defense system near the settlement of Dalne in Crimea, the General Staff said.

The extent of the damage is still being assessed.

#Repost @kyivindependent_official with @use.repost_ . . . Ukrainian forces struck a plant in Russia’s Bryansk region that manufactures control systems for Russian missiles, President Volodymyr Zelensky said at an online media briefing on March 10.

“An operation has just successfully taken — a plant in Bryansk was hit. This plant manufactures control systems for all types of missiles of the Russian Federation.” Zelensky said, adding that Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi had informed him of the strike.

The strike targeted the Kremniy El plant, a major Russian microelectronics manufacturer located in Bryansk, Ukraine’s General Staff said. Russian regional officials confirmed an attack on industrial infrastructure in the city and reported damage following explosions.

Kremniy El is one of Russia’s largest military microelectronics producers, manufacturing semiconductor components used in missile guidance and control systems. Its products are incorporated into a range of Russian weapons systems, including Pantsir air defense complexes and Iskander missile systems.

The facility has been targeted in previous attacks during the war, reflecting Ukraine's broader strategy of striking deep into Russia to disrupt the country's military-industrial supply chains.

Bryansk is located near the Ukrainian border but outside active front-line combat areas. Strikes on such industrial sites are part of Kyiv's continued efforts to degrade Russia's missile production capacity as Moscow maintains regular missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.

Ukrainian forces continue to erode Russia’s ability to finance its war with oil revenues via their latest strike on another oil refinery, this time in the city of Orsk, Orenburg Oblast, Russia. 🇺🇦🛢️🔥💙💛👏🙏🇺🇦

#Repost @kyivindependent_official with @use.repost_ . . . Ukraine’s armed forces have struck a hub for Russian drone logistics in occupied Donetsk, the General Staff confirmed on Nov. 6.

Late in the evening of Nov. 5 videos emerged on Telegram of explosions rocking the area around the Donetsk airport. Commentators called it a strike on a warehouse that housed long-range Shahed-type drones.

On Nov. 6 the General Staff confirmed the strikes on “a base of storage, assembly and launch of Shahed-type UAVs.”

They further noted explosions and “a powerful secondary detonation” as well as the involvement of missile and artillery units and the Unmanned Systems Forces.

Videos posted to social media appear to support the claims.

Unmanned Systems Forces leader Madyar described the strike as the result of a “painstaking months-long reconnaissance operation” in a post on Telegram.

The “killboard” for the unit, also known as the 414, or “Madyar’s Birds,” does now include one warehouse.

The airport was one of Ukraine’s premier development projects before falling under Russian occupation in 2015. Russia has in recent months turned it into a staging ground for drone logistics.

Unconfirmed figures circulating on Ukrainian social media indicate that the strike may have destroyed up to 1,000 Shahed-type drones and over 1,500 warheads for them.

Elsewhere overnight, Ukraine’s military struck and damaged Russia’s Volgograd oil refinery overnight as explosions rocked several Russian energy sites.

As a result of a Ukrainian strike, an oil depot in Russia’s Rostov Oblast has been ablaze for eight days. 🇺🇦👏💙💛🙏🇺🇦

#Repost @kyivindependent_official with @use.repost . . . Satellite images obtained by Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty suggest that an oil depot fire keeps spreading at the Kavkaz oil and petroleum storage facility just outside Proletarsk, a town in Russia’s Rostov Oblast.

Over a week later, Russian emergency services are failing to contain the fire. The oil depot’s blaze has spread into a fourth fire burning additional oil storage tanks, according to Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty.

The fire began on Aug. 18 following a Ukrainian strike on the oil depot, one of many attacks on Russian soil meant to downsize Russia’s military potential in its war against Ukraine.

Unconfirmed reports sources suggest that another strike was carried out on Aug. 23 once the fire began. Dozens of firefighters have been injured trying to extinguish the fire. The smoke from the fire extends more than 60 kilometers into the sky.

The oil depot is located 340 kilometers (211 miles) from the border with Russian-occupied Donetsk Oblast.
