Ukraine targets Russian munitions depots and plants
General Staff / Telegram
Ukrainian forces recently struck the Main Missile and
Artillery Directorate (GRAU) arsenal at Kedrovka and two Russian
facilities that produce explosives and aerial bombs, Ukraine’s General Staff
said on May 8.
The General Staff said the strikes included the April 30 hit on production buildings at the Sverdlov plant in Dzerzhinsk, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. It described the plant as one of Russia’s largest manufacturers of explosive materials that makes a wide range of munitions, including bombs and artillery shells, and warheads for anti‑tank guided missiles.
The statement said the plant also loads high‑explosive aerial bombs (FAB).
The General Staff also confirmed an April 25 strike on
buildings at the GRAU arsenal in Kedrovka in Sverdlovsk Oblast. In May, it said
Ukrainian forces damaged infrastructure at an explosives plant in Seltso,
Bryansk Oblast.
