On the night of September 26, Ukrainian defense forces struck a factory that supplies the Russian army with components for missiles and artillery. Other enemy targets were also attacked, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
“Last night, the Ilsky Oil Refinery in the Krasnodar region was hit. Our long-range capabilities were also effective in the Rostov region: a plant supplying the occupiers with components for missiles and artillery, as well as a Pantsir-S2 system, was struck,” Zelenskyy said.
Long-range strikes were also carried out against logistics facilities supporting Russia’s war against Ukraine. There have been results in the Black Sea.
A Russian ammunition depot was struck in Siverskodonetsk, Luhansk region.
And in the Semenivske area of the Donetsk region, the P-18 Terek radar station was struck.

The maximum target detection range can reach approximately 250 km, and the maximum detection altitude is up to 35 km. The station is one of the radar support assets of the Russian air defense system.
