Ukraine plans several-fold increase in strikes inside Russia — Defense Minister

He told reporters this on June 27, according to Radio Liberty.

Last year, Ukraine made a plan for long-range strikes and signed deals to get tens of thousands of long-range drones. These drones helped hit important enemy targets accurately and regularly.

He said a recent decision was made to increase these operations by several times.

“About two weeks ago, we decided to increase the number of operations several times, and contracts are being prepared for tens of thousands of new long-range drones to make strikes stronger and more frequent,” Umerov said.

• On the night of June 11, drones hit a factory in Kotovsk, Tambov region, Russia. The factory makes gunpowder for small arms, artillery, and rocket systems.
• On June 27, Umerov said that Ukraine can make 4 million drones per year.
