Recall

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Ukrainian long-range drones will continue to increase the range of striking targets on the territory of the Russian Federation. According to him, FP drones manufactured by Fire Point have already successfully hit a target at a distance of over 2,000 km, covering a route of about 2,500 km. At the same time, the Head of State announced the emergence of new Ukrainian drones capable of flying over 3,000 km.

"If directly, 2070 km, our FP drones hit their target. Their route was 2.5 thousand kilometers. They will be 3000+ km, these are new drones, good drones. We will go further. Because we understand where all their military factories, oil bases, gas storage facilities, etc., are. We need to have tools for a greater distance, we are doing this," Zelenskyy stated.

According to the Head of State, the Ukrainian defense-industrial complex has already begun the process of "returning the war to the territory of Russia," and the range of Ukrainian-made strike weapons continues to grow.

"They hit us every day, we will respond every day. Of course, there will be an increase every day," the President said.
