Moscow promised more strikes should Ukraine keep shelling its territory
Moscow has said that its Kalibr cruise missiles struck a missile factory outside Kiev and promised more strikes on the Ukrainian capital should Ukraine continue its attacks on Russian territory.
Russia earlier accused Ukraine of shelling its Belgorod and Bryansk regions on Thursday, leaving seven residents injured, including a two-year-old boy and his pregnant mother.
A Russian warship used Kalibr missiles to destroy the Vizar military factory outside Kiev, which was building and repairing anti-aircraft and anti-ship missiles, Defense Ministry spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov said on Friday.
Konashenkov warned that Moscow will “increase the number and scale of missile strikes” on the Ukrainian capital in response to attacks on Russian soil. He had issued a similar warning on Wednesday.
