SSU and SOF drones hit Aleksin Chemical Plant in russia, which produces gunpowder and ammunition – sources

That night, drones of the Security Service of Ukraine and Special Operations Forces attacked the Tula Oblast (the russian federation), namely the Aleksin Chemical Plant.

Sources in law enforcement agencies informed the Ukrainian News agency about this.

The plant is part of the Rostec Corporation and produces ammunition, gunpowder and materials for the russian military-industrial complex.

From 9:30 p.m. on November 8, an air raid alert was announced in various regions of russia due to drone flights, and at three o'clock in the morning, residents of the Tula Oblast began to write about the attack on the chemical plant, explosions and the movement of fire engines to the place of ignition.

"The SSU is conducting a comprehensive investigation of facilities on the territory of the Russian Federation that are involved in the war in Ukraine. Attacks on weapons warehouses, military airfields and enterprises that are part of the Russian military industry reduce Russia's ability to terrorize our country," said an informed source in the SSU.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in September, the drones of the SSU and the Defense Forces liquidated a warehouse with Iskander, Tochka-U missiles and guided aerial bombs in the Tver Oblast (russia).

Strikes by the Security Service of Ukraine on warehouses in the russian federation are depriving the enemy of resources for waging war and have already led to a shortage of shells for the russians at the front. The SSU, the SOF and the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine attacked the Sverdlov Plant in the city of Dzerzhynsk, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. It manufactured explosives, aviation and artillery shells, aviation bombs, including guided aerial bombs, warheads of cumulative anti-tank guided missiles, warheads for anti-aircraft missile systems.
