In Russia, the defense plant Titan-Barrikady in Volgograd, where components for missile systems are produced, sustained significant damage as a result of a missile strike, according to Skhemy (Radio Svoboda).
Consequences of the strike in satellite images
Journalists have published fresh satellite images from the company Vantor, taken on July 1. The images clearly show at least two heavily damaged buildings of the Russian military enterprise.
Earlier, a video also appeared on social media showing a precise hit by two Ukrainian FP-5 Flamingo missiles on the territory of this defense facility.
What the plant produces
The Russian Titan-Barrikady plant is a strategic facility for the occupying army. It specializes in producing launch systems, artillery systems, and components for strategic and tactical missile systems, including Iskander-M, Yars, and Topol-M.

Zelenskyy’s statement
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed the successful strike carried out by Ukraine’s Defense Forces. He said the strike on the industrial complex in Volgograd was carried out on the night of June 27.
"This is a large industrial complex where the enemy produces artillery systems and special military equipment, including elements of missile launch systems used for strikes against our people. Hits were recorded, followed by a fire on the plant’s territory. I thank the warriors of our Defense Forces for their precision," the head of state emphasized.
Strikes on military plants in Russia
Russian defense industry enterprises involved in the production of missile weapons and related components are increasingly coming under attack.
On the morning of June 27, powerful explosions were heard in Russia’s Volgograd. Missiles struck a local defense enterprise that produces launch systems for Iskander-M operational-tactical complexes.
That night, air raid alerts were issued in several Russian regions, and footage recorded by eyewitnesses showed clear impacts and thick columns of smoke over the city.
In addition, a few days earlier, on June 22, a series of explosions shook Russia’s Voronezh. At that time, another important military plant producing microelectronics and components for Russian missiles came under attack.
Despite statements by local authorities claiming "targets were intercepted," numerous videos appeared online showing confirmed hits, followed by clouds of black smoke rising over the enterprise.
