      In a statement on Telegram, Zelensky noted that the targeted logistics hubs were located over 500 and approximately 700 kilometers from the front line. According to the president, the facilities were utilized to supply sanctioned components for the production of drones and navigation equipment.

        thanks, that makes more sense than a general warehouse of stuff. Ukraine seems too focused to waste equipment on trivial targets.

      Basically like hitting a big amazon warehouse:

      I’d say they’re running out of refineries to hit and this seems like the next best things

      Slowly but surely the average Russian is finally going to learn what it’s like to be living in Ukraine for the last 4 years
