The Armed Forces of Ukraine on 6 November and in the night of 7 November struck two launchers of the Iskander mobile tactical missile system in the Bryansk region of Russia. The Pantsir-S1 air defense system was also hit.
This was announced in the morning of 7 November by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The extent of damage to the Russian installations is being determined. The General Staff noted that the destruction or disabling of each Iskander launcher reduces Russia's ability to deliver ballistic strikes against Ukrainian cities. The Pantsir-S1 was intended to provide air defense cover for Russian facilities.
In addition, Ukrainian forces reported strikes on Russian military facilities in temporarily occupied territories of Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia regions.
Separately, the General Staff confirmed a strike on the Russian defense-industrial complex enterprise AT Proterm-Elektroteks in Orël. The attacks were carried out on the night of 7 November by missile forces using the Neptune coastal missile systems of the Ukrainian Navy.
According to the General Staff, there were hits on the enterprise premises, followed by a fire and explosions. The extent of the damage is being established.
Proterm-Elektroteks is one of Russia's leading producers of optoelectronic equipment and full-cycle manufacturing devices. The enterprise, in particular, manufactures modules for the airborne cruise missiles Kub-ler and switches-inverters for ballistic missiles 9M723 of the Iskander-M system.
The Orël plant has previously endured Ukrainian strikes. After the attack on 23 in October, a large-scale fire broke out at the facility. Five people were killed, and another 19 were injured.
Since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion, Ukrainian forces have regularly struck military targets, defense-industrial enterprises, oil refineries, and other facilities on the territory of Russia and in occupied regions of Ukraine. The General Staff explains that such operations are necessary to systematically reduce the combat potential of Russian forces and weaken Russia's ability to continue its aggression against Ukraine.
