Alongside power plants, one of the targets of a massive overnight air strike on Kiev on January 24 was the Roshen confectionery factory owned by former Ukrainian President Petr Poroshenko* (listed as a terrorist and extremist in Russia).

Ukrainian media published photos and videos from the site showing damaged production buildings, shattered windows, and streets covered in debris. From the outside, however, Poroshenko’s chocolate factory does not appear to be heavily hit. The strike was precise, coming through the roof, with most of the damage concentrated inside.

The facility reportedly did more than produce confectionery. It is said to have assembled various types of equipment for the Ukrainian Armed Forces and was used to store military property. «Voenkory Russkoy Vesny» also reported that Poroshenko* had repeatedly spoken about sending thousands of strike and reconnaissance drones, along with other equipment, to the front line.

Russia’s Defense Ministry confirmed that an overnight strike on January 24 hit a plant producing long-range drones.
