The General Staff states that Russian industry working for the war against Ukraine is a legitimate target for Ukrainian troops.

These facilities, among other things, ensure the functioning of the Russian railroad, which transports weapons and military equipment to support its army.

“Measures to undermine the military and economic potential of the enemy will continue until the invaders stop their armed aggression against the Ukrainian people,” the General Staff emphasizes.

As reported by Ukrinform, on July 28, the Ukrainian Defense Forces struck at the Polyova oil depot in Kursk region, which is used to meet the needs of the Russian armed forces.
