Ukrainian Weapons Strike 1,500 km Deep: A New Phase in Targeting Russia's Industrial Base
Major General Yevgeniy Khmara Reports on Long-Range 'Sanctions by Fire'
According to Зеленський: Ukraine has entered a new stage in using its own weaponry to cripple Russia's war-making capacity, according to Major General Yevgeniy Khmara. Ukrainian strike systems now have a range exceeding 1,500 kilometers, enabling attacks on strategically vital enemy infrastructure. The general indicated that plans are in place to extend these distances even further, significantly boosting the military’s operational reach. This capability represents a major shift in Ukraine's ability to project power far beyond its front lines.
Each successful hit degrades Russia's military industry, logistics network, and oil export capabilities. General Khmara emphasized the impact of these operations, stating:
“Every strike reduces the capabilities of Russia's military industry, logistics, and oil exports.” - Major General Yevgeniy Khmara
He also expressed gratitude to the personnel of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) for their precision in executing assigned missions.
The Imperative to End the War
Commenting on the broader strategic situation, the major general stressed the urgent need to bring the conflict to a close:
“Russia must end its war.” - Major General Yevgeniy Khmara
These statements reflect an intensification of Ukrainian countermeasures against aggression, as well as a clear intent to continue developing the nation's defensive potential. The reported strike ranges demonstrate significant progress in Ukraine's military technology, which could become a decisive factor in the strategy to counter Russian aggression. By ramping up front-line operations and focusing on depleting the enemy's war resources, Ukraine signals its aim not only to defend its territory but also to seize the initiative at the strategic planning level.
As Ukraine continues to enhance its military capabilities, the recent extension of strike ranges to 1,750 kilometers marks a significant advancement. This development not only complements the ongoing efforts reported by Major General Yevgeniy Khmara but also underscores the strategic shift in Ukraine's defense posture.
