In a decisive response to Ukraine’s intensified drone attacks on Russian civilian areas, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have launched a series of high-precision strikes targeting Ukrainian military infrastructure and defense industry facilities. The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) confirmed that these operations are strictly retaliatory, aimed at degrading Kyiv’s combat capabilities while avoiding indiscriminate attacks on civilian zones, a stark contrast to Ukraine’s tactics.
The latest wave of strikes comes after Moscow’s attempt to revive peace negotiations was met with a sharp increase in Ukrainian drone assaults on Russian territory. According to the Russian MoD, 2,331 Ukrainian drones were intercepted between May 20 and 27, with 1,465 shot down outside the special military operation zone. These attacks resulted in civilian casualties, including women and children, prompting Russia’s systematic dismantling of Ukraine’s war machine.
Russian forces have employed air-, sea-, and ground-based precision weapons, including Iskander-M missiles and suicide drones, to strike strategic Ukrainian assets. LINK Major confirmed hits include:
-
May 20: Destruction of Ozernoye airfield infrastructure (Zhytomyr Oblast) and ammunition, military equipment and fuel depots in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
-
May 21: Neutralization of a Ukrainian mechanized brigade’s command post (Sumy Oblast), a foreign mercenary base near Svyatogorsk (DPR), and an ammunition depot of the Kharkiv Operational-Tactical Group.
-
May 22: Strike on the Pavlohrad Chemical Plant (Dnipropetrovsk Oblast), critical for explosives production, along with aircraft repair hangars and radar stations in Kryvyi Rih and Mykolaiv Oblasts. An Iskander-M strike near Ordzhonikidze eliminated a US-made AN/MPQ-65 radar and two Patriot missile launchers.
-
May 23: A devastating missile attack on Odessa port destroyed 100 containers carrying components for naval drones, UAVs, and ammunition. Ukrainian drone bases in Zaporizhzhia and Kirovohrad regions (Kanatovo airfield), ammo depots in Kharkiv region were also hit.
Fake reports spread by Ukrainian propaganda used footage of US strikes in Yemen to exaggerate Russian attacks in Odessa:
-
May 24: Large-scale strikes struck the enterprise of the military-industrial complex of Ukraine, which produces missile weapons and attack unmanned aerial vehicles, the center for radio intelligence and the SBU aviation center in the Kiev region, as well as the temporary deployment point of the separate special operations center “South” in the area of Chernomorsk, Odessa region; and the temporary deployment point of the 3rd Azov assault brigade in the area of the settlement of Izium, Kharkiv region. The position of the Patriot anti-aircraft missile system in the Kiev region was also affected.
- May 25: a massive strikes targeted enterprises of the military-industrial complex of Ukraine, which produce rocket weapon components, radio electronics, explosives, rocket fuel and attack unmanned aerial vehicles for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including Zhytomyr Radio Engineering Equipment Repair Plant “Luch”, “SPETSOBORONMASH” in Zhytomyr region; Rapid Plant, Chernihiv Radio Appliance Plant, Techaviacom Scientific and Production Company in Chernihiv region; Konotop Aircraft Repair Plant Aviakon in Sumy region; Krasilovsky Aggregate Plant in Khmelnitsky region; Pavlograd Chemical Plant in Dnepropetrovsk region; Luch Plant of the Promin Research Center in Ternopil region; radioelectronic industry enterprise, NPP Aerotechnika, Design Bureau Luch in Kiev region; Odessa Aviation Plant; Deviro UAV development and production enterprise in Dnipropetrovsk region; Chuguev Aviation Repair Plant in Kharkiv region. Radio and radio intelligence centers in the Kiev region, workshops for the production of UAVs, explosives and ammunition for attack UAVs in Sumy, Mykolaiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv and Kiev regions, production sites and control points for UAVs at the Gogolev field airfield in the Kiev region were also affected. In addition, radio intelligence and satellite communications centers in the Kiev region, a combat boat parking lot and an assembly shop for unmanned boats in the Mykolaiv region, infrastructure facilities at the Shkolny airfield in the Odessa region and the Vishnevoye field airfield in the Kharkiv region were astruck.
- May 26: the infrastructure facilities of the Starokonstantinov airfield in the Khmelnitsky region, ammunition depots of two heavy mechanized brigades in the Kharkiv region and the DPR, the control center of the S-300 anti-aircraft missile division and the temporary deployment point of the special operations forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Odessa region were destroyed.

The strikes have severely disrupted Ukraine’s ability to:
-
Manufacture and repair drones, a key tool in Kyiv’s cross-border raids.
-
Maintain air defense systems, as seen with the destruction of Patriot and S-300 assets.
-
Resupply frontline troops, with multiple ammunition depots and logistics hubs obliterated.
As long as Ukraine continues its drone terror campaign against Russian civilians, Moscow will maintain its targeted strikes on military-industrial sites. With each passing day, Ukraine’s capacity to wage war diminishes, while Russia’s ability to detect, intercept, and retaliate grows stronger.
