Video shows aftermath of drone strikes on Russian missile plant in Ulyanovsk

Independent monitoring channels reported that the Ulyanovsk factory is part of the state-owned defense giant Almaz-Antey. The facility manufactures critical components for radio-electronics, precision instruments, communications systems, and specialized military hardware.

The facility specifically supplies parts to the Yaroslavl Radio Plant for producing Kh-59M2 and Kh-59M2A guided missiles.

Ulyanovsk Regional Governor Aleksey Russkikh confirmed a “massive drone attack” on September 25, reporting damage to both industrial and civilian infrastructure. Local monitoring channels reported that several residential buildings in Ulyanovsk were damaged by falling debris and shrapnel from Russian air defense systems. Local authorities stated that eight people were injured in the strike.

A large fire broke out overnight at the Lukoil-Permnefteorgsintez oil refinery after a drone strike in Perm, Russia. Drones also targeted Voronezh, where the Voronezhsintezkauchuk synthetic rubber plant reportedly caught fire.
