On July 5, the UAV forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine struck a Russian military-industrial complex enterprise. This refers to JSC "VNIIR-Progress" in Cheboksary, which produces "Kometa" adaptive antenna arrays. They are used in Shahed, "Iskander-K" and UMPK, which Russia uses to shell Ukraine.

UNN also reported a strike on the "Borisoglebsk" airfield, where Su-34, Su-35S, and Su-30SM aircraft are based, citing the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
