The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense's official media platform, the Military Media Center, has released a briefing on russian air and missile strikes. It states that "defense industry enterprises (of Ukraine, ed.) are a priority target for russian missile attacks." However, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense does not provide any further details on this matter.

Even though this concise announcement serves as an important reminder, it underscores the constant targeting of the domestic defense industry by the aggressor country. It highlights the incredible challenges faced by employees of Ukrainian defense enterprises. It is worth mentioning that during the large-scale war of the russian federation against Ukraine, since February 24, 2022, Ukrainian defense industry facilities have been subjected to over 150 missile and aerial attacks by the aggressor.
