Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the strike on a plant in Cheboksary overnight was carried out using F-5 Flamingo cruise missiles.
“Last night, combat launches of F-5 Flamingo cruise missiles were carried out as part of the Armed Forces’ Deep Strike operation against several enemy targets, including facilities of the military-industrial complex in Cheboksary,” the statement said.
According to Zelenskyy, the missiles travelled a distance of more than 1,500 km. The targeted plant produced relay protection systems, automation equipment and low-voltage devices, and supplied navigation components for Russia’s military-industrial complex and armed forces.
“Russia must end its war and move to real diplomacy. We have made our proposal,” Zelenskyy concluded.
