The General Staff of the AFU has revealed the new pilots of the strike on the launch site of "Oreshnik" in the Russian Federation.

At the Kapustin Yar training range, from where Russian occupation troops launch the Oreshnik intercontinental ballistic missile at Ukraine, facilities providing ballistic missile maintenance were damaged in a strike. Earlier it was reported that this range was hit using long-range Ukrainian Flamingo missiles. New details of the attack were revealed by the AFU General Staff.

"According to the results of preliminary strikes on the State Central Interdeployment Range Kapustin Yar of the Defense Ministry of the Russian Federation in the Astrakhan region of the Russian Federation, damage was confirmed to the medium-range ballistic missile maintenance facility, the assembly building and the logistics warehouse. Enemy losses and the scale of damage are being specified," the report said.

In addition, the AFU General Staff reported the defeat of a logistics depot, a manpower concentration area and a control point for enemy drones.

It is noted that as part of measures to reduce the offensive potential of Russian troops, units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces continue to carry out fire strikes on enemy military facilities both in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine and on the territory of the Russian Federation.

In particular, on the night of February 8, a logistics warehouse of an enemy unit near the temporarily occupied Rozovka in Zaporizhzhya region was hit.

February 7, in the vicinity of Krasnogorskoye settlement in the temporarily occupied territory of Zaporizhzhya region, a place of concentration of enemy personnel was hit.

In addition, in the temporarily occupied territory of Donetsk region, near Novoekonomichnoye settlement, a control point of enemy drones was hit.

"The Ukrainian Defense Forces will continue to systematically implement measures aimed at weakening the offensive capabilities and reducing the combat potential of the Russian aggressor," the AFU General Staff summarized.
