Ukrainian intelligence cannot confirm or deny its involvement in the explosions that occurred at Russian plants last night, as it was reported by the representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense, Andrii Yusov, during a telethon.
"The powder plant, a plant for the production of rocket equipment, somewhere there, a train went off the tracks. Well, you see, even in Russia, good people are celebrating the first anniversary of the liberation of Ukrainian Kherson, which the Main Directorate of Intelligence congratulates everyone on," replied Yusov.
The representative of the Main Directorate of Intelligence emphasized that Ukrainian intelligence cannot confirm or deny the incidents on the territory of Russia. However, according to him, this news is undoubtedly positive.
"All objects in Russia that continue to be related to the genocidal war against Ukrainians will continue to experience something," he emphasized.
What preceded this
On the night of November 11, explosions occurred at the Kotovsk Powder Plant in the Tambov region of the Russian Federation. After that, a fire broke out there.
Russian media reported that the fire area was about 300 square meters, and it took at least an hour and a half to extinguish it.
Also, in the evening of November 10, explosions occurred in the city of Kolomna in the Moscow region. Reports on social media initially suggested a drone attack and the operation of air defense systems. Later, it became known that the explosion occurred in the area of the Design Bureau of Machine Building, which is involved in the development and production of missile equipment and anti-aircraft complexes.
RBC-Ukraine sources claim that these operations were carried out by fighters of the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense.
