Oleh Synegubov, head of the Kharkiv Operational Military Administration, said that Russian troops are not stopping their activities in the city of Kharkiv, using it as a staging ground for training with modified ammunition.
"The adversary is trying to adapt, using all available resources stored in their warehouses against the civilian civilian population. We had our first attack on the city of Kharkiv last Sunday, in the area of a private school. The ammunition used was KAB-250 with wings and a GPS module," said the head of the OVA.
He also emphasized that these munitions, in particular the UMPB 30-D, are valued at approximately $100,000, and the enemy's intention to use them is becoming increasingly difficult and expensive.
"For example, Kalibr missiles cost about $10 million. Also, the S-400 costs almost $2 million, and the S-300 costs up to $500,000 per missile," he added.
Synegubov noted that Kharkiv has recently come under enemy fire again, more than three hits by guided aerial bombs have been recorded. He emphasized the importance of providing Ukraine with modern air defense systems, strong combat aircraft and long-range weapons to protect the city and its surroundings.
"Previously, they announced the possible permission of the USA to open fire on the territory of the Russian Federation along the entire border, where enemy troops are trying to cross the border," analysts of the Institute for the Study of War emphasized.
