Russian forces carried out a massive overnight strike on November 12, hitting Ukrainian facilities involved in drone manufacturing and the production of missile components. Energy infrastructure and a cargo ship transporting supplies for the Ukrainian Armed Forces were also struck. Russia’s Defense Ministry released details of the operation.

The attacks on Kiev and the surrounding region involved precision-guided ground-based weapons and attack drones.

In Kiev, Russian forces struck the Generator plant, an enterprise operating in the rocket and space industry. The facility manufactures Hornet medium-range unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

Three more industrial sites were hit across the Kiev region. In Brovary, the strike targeted Patriot-Ukraine New Generation Aviation LLC, which hosts a production facility operated by Avia UA. The site is used to assemble various types of drones.

Another target was the Keratem plant in Kuzmintsy. The factory produces components for solid rocket propellant used in operational-tactical missiles.

Russian forces also hit Stellar Jet in Yagotin, a company that manufactures solid-fuel boosters for unmanned aerial vehicles.

The strikes extended beyond military manufacturing facilities to energy infrastructure in Zhitomir. Two electrical substations operating at 330 kV and 110 kV were hit. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, both facilities supplied power to enterprises within Ukraine’s military-industrial complex.

The ministry also reported a strike on a cargo ship at sea. The vessel was heading toward the port of Odessa with supplies intended for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
