In an apparent drone attack from
Ukraine, this morning, the Smolensk Aviation Plant in Russia was reportedly set
ablaze. The factory produces the Sukhoi Su-25 ground-attack aircraft, as well
as parts for other aircraft and missiles. Newsweek reported that
the attack was confirmed by Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Center for Countering
Disinformation at Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council.
Kovalenko said the factory in the
Smolensk region has links to Russia’s Defense Ministry. Smolensk is
approximately 200 miles from the Ukraine border, near the border with Belarus.
