Russian forces hit five military-industrial facilities and a logistics hub in Kiev and its suburbs during a barrage overnight from Friday to Saturday, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said. Two ships carrying military cargo off Odessa the day before were also hit, it added.

In a statement on Saturday, the ministry said that the strikes, which involved precision air, sea and ground-based weapons, targeted the Kiev-based enterprise Radioizmeritel, which it said was supplying electronic components for Neptun-MD, Grom-2, and FP-7/FP-9 missiles and was involved in developing navigation systems for long-range drones.

Other targets included the Burevestnik plant, said to build electronics for long- and medium-range drones and radar equipment, and a Fire Point facility producing parts and warheads for FP-5 Flamingo cruise missiles, along with chemicals for solid-fuel boosters.

The ministry also listed a site tied to Lima jamming systems used to spoof precision-guidance signals, as well as a drone assembly and storage point which specialized in several types of interceptor UAVs.

Officials added that the strikes hit a logistics center in Vishnevoye, in Kiev Region, which handled components and warheads for Ukrainian drones. On Friday, two ships were also struck south of Odessa while transporting military cargo, the statement added.

Meanwhile, Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky claimed that the strike involved 35 missiles – 27 of them ballistic – and 185 drones, with Kiev as the main target, alongside attacks on Dnepropetrovsk, Sumy, Kharkov and Poltava Regions. He said only one ballistic missile was intercepted, citing a shortage of Western-supplied Patriot interceptors.

Zelensky also reported fires across seven districts of Kiev, claiming that at least nine people had been killed and dozens injured. Meanwhile, Kiev Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported fires at both residential and unspecified non-residential industrial sites.

Moscow has been carrying out strikes on Ukraine’s defense-related facilities as retaliation for Kiev’s attacks deep into Russian territory, which often target critical infrastructure and residential buildings. Russia maintains it never targets civilians.
