Russia targets American electronics manufacturer in western Ukraine – Foreign Minister Andrii
Russia launched another airstrike on Ukraine in the night of Wednesday striking a U.S. electronics producer, said Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha on Thursday.
“One of the missiles struck a major American electronics manufacturer in our westernmost region, leading to serious damage and casualties,” Sybiha said on X.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote on Telegram that several cruise missiles had been fired at an American enterprise producing coffee machines, and other household items in the western Zakarpattya region.
A total of 15 people were wounded in the missile attack, which caused a fire on an area of 7,000 square meters, according to the State Service for Emergencies.
The Ukrainian Air Force reported that the attack involved 574 drones and 40 missiles, adding that it intercepted 546 drones, 18 Kh-101 cruise missiles, 12 Kalibr cruise missiles, and one Kinzhal hypersonic missile. (Xinhua/NAN)
