Later, Nova Poshta confirmed that its innovative terminal in Dnipro was damaged as a result of the Russian attack. It was noted that employees were in shelter during the strike and were not injured.
The President of Ukraine stated that Russia is capable of producing around 120 ballistic missiles per month. Combined with other types of weaponry, this enables it to carry out large-scale missile attacks on a regular basis.
Previously, Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that Russia may concentrate future strikes on specific defense enterprises. According to him, the Kremlin views Ukraine’s ability to independently develop missile technologies as a strategic threat.
