The Ukrainian Armed Forces are striking the enemy General Staff

Between August 31 and September 6, the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck a number of key military and infrastructure targets on Russian territory and in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.

This is stated in a report from the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

One of the key targets of the Ukrainian forces’ strikes has been oil refining facilities that supply Russian troops.

According to the General Staff, an oil refinery in the Ryazan region was struck, as well as the "NOVATEK-Ust-Luga" complex in the Leningrad region of the Russian Federation. This is a major facility for the processing and transshipment of gas condensate.

Separately, the Ukrainian military struck systems that enable Russia to operate in airspace and deploy missiles, drones, and guided aerial bombs:

  • the “Kasta” radar and other radars;
  • a command-and-control vehicle from the S-400 “Triumph” air defense system;
  • the “Krasukha-4” mobile electronic warfare system;
  • other electronic warfare systems and communications nodes;
  • command posts at various levels, technical reconnaissance assets, and repeaters;
  • launch sites for attack drones;
  • UAV storage and launch facilities in Donetsk, Gvardeyskoye, Millerovo, and other areas;
  • depots for drones, ammunition, logistical supplies, and fuel and lubricants.

The destruction of a Russian MiG-29 fighter jet and a Ka-27 helicopter has also been confirmed.

In addition, the Ukrainian military struck a BK-16 landing craft and a number of other military targets.

The General Staff emphasized that the Defense Forces continue to systematically target facilities that enable Russia to wage war against Ukraine.

As a reminder, a railway bridge across the North Crimean Canal in Crimea was struck. The General Staff also confirmed strikes on the “Grenadier” automated reconnaissance post in the city of Perekop in the temporarily occupied Crimea.
