Ukrainian long-range drones have gained the ability to attack targets in Russia at distances up to 2,000 kilometres. This information was provided by Andriy Yusov from Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR), as quoted by Ukrinform.

- From what we can tell, and it's no longer a secret, Ukrainian long-range unmanned aerial vehicles can hypothetically operate up to 2,000 kilometres - said Yusov.

Attacks deep into Russia

He added that Kyiv "neither confirms nor denies" reports of Ukraine's involvement in incidents of various "explosions" in Russia. - I can only say that there is a reason for the explosions there, he stated, indicating that the attacks occur in facilities related to the Russian military-industrial complex and the army.

For months, various parts of Russia have been experiencing drone attacks on energy plants, refineries, and other military targets. These actions are part of a broader strategy by Ukraine to weaken Russia's military and logistical potential.

In recent days, Ukrainian air forces attacked a company producing rocket fuel in the Rostov region of western Russia, informed the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Drones also attacked the military airport Vladimir in the Russian city of Voronezh, reported the independent Russian channel Astra.
