The SSU’s Alfa Special Operations Centre, together with units of the Ukrainian Navy, have struck the production buildings of the Atlant Aero plant, located in Taganrog, Rostov oblast, russia. As a result of the strikes, a series of loud explosions and a fire were observed at the facility.

Atlant Aero is engaged in the full cycle of design, manufacture, and testing of Molniya strike and reconnaissance UAVs, as well as components for Orion drones, for the aggressor state.

The strike on the plant will reduce UAV production and weaken the occupiers’ technical capabilities to conduct reconnaissance and strike operations using drones.

Each production line that is shut down means hundreds of drones that will not fly over Ukrainian cities, kill civilians, or destroy homes.

The Security Service of Ukraine, together with the Security and Defence Forces, continues to work effectively to reduce russia’s military potential. ‘Mysterious explosions’ will continue to occur at russia’s military-industrial complex enterprises.
