Pryluky was also targeted in a Russian attack on Sept. 7, when a fire broke out at a British American Tobacco cigarette factory in the city.

The Pryluky factory produces seven cigarette brands and three brands of heated tobacco products, according to the company.

Around 500 people work at the facility, most of them in tobacco processing, filter production and cigarette manufacturing units responsible for the main stages of production, including tobacco preparation, filter-stick production, cigarette manufacturing and packaging.
