Russia Reports Overnight Joint Strike on Ukraine’s Defense Industry Facilities

Moscow: The Russian Defense Ministry announced on Saturday that its forces carried out a coordinated overnight attack on Ukrainian military-industrial facilities.

According to the ministry's statement, the assault involved high-precision long-range weapons and drones, targeting production sites for combat drones, arms maintenance and repair centers, and ammunition storage facilities.

"The intended goals were accomplished, and all assigned targets were successfully hit," the ministry stated, as reported by Anadolu.

During the same night, Russian air defenses reportedly intercepted 311 drones—140 of which were said to be outside active combat zones—and destroyed four unmanned enemy boats in the Black Sea.

Ukraine has not yet issued a response to these claims, and independent verification remains difficult amid the ongoing conflict.
