During the nighttime combined attack by Russia, almost all the missiles were fired at Poltava region. The strike was in one direction at the gas production industry. This was reported to UNN by Yuriy Ihnat, head of the Communications Department of the Air Force Command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Almost all the missiles were flying to Poltava region. There were missiles of different types, a combined attack in one direction on the gas production industry
Ihnat noted that this is not the first Russian attack on Poltava region and others. According to him, earlier such gas infrastructure facilities were attacked in Lviv region and Ivano-Frankivsk region. Ihnat explained that the difficulty lies in the fact that ballistic, cruise and guided missiles are flying simultaneously, and in addition to the "chessmen", which makes it difficult to detect and destroy them.
"The results of the attack are still being clarified and are not being made public. Some missiles were shot down, some were suppressed by electronic warfare, but there were hits," said Ihnat.
