Russian Army Strikes Factory in Kharkiv, Ukraine
In a recent attack, the Russian army targeted a factory in Kharkiv where personnel from the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense were stationed. These individuals were involved in attacks on the Belgorod region, according to Sergey Lebedev, the coordinator of the Nikolaev underground, as reported by RIA Novosti.
“Today, a strike was carried out on the city of Kharkiv, specifically targeting the production of drones,” he said.
Lebedev explained that the factory “had the presence of personal forces”, with military personnel from the Main Intelligence Directorate recently arriving here, who had attempted to storm the Belgorod region.
The missile strike also hit workers from Western Ukraine who were assembling drones, as well as foreign specialists involved in drone equipment.
Prior to this, Ukrainian intelligence claimed responsibility for the attack on the Engel’s airfield.
In mid-March, a grenade strike against a group of Ukrainian saboteurs was captured on video.
Earlier, the US State Department reacted to the shelling of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Belgorod.

It is important to note that the situation in Ukraine remains tense, with ongoing conflict between Ukrainian forces and pro-Russian separatists in the eastern regions of the country. The Russian government has been accused by international observers of providing support to the separatists, despite denying any involvement. The United States and other Western countries have condemned Russia’s actions and imposed sanctions in response. This latest attack on the factory in Kharkiv is seen as another example of Russia’s aggressive actions in the region. Critics argue that Russian intervention in Ukraine violates international law and threatens regional stability. The US government, under President Biden, has been under pressure to provide increased support to Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. However, some conservatives have expressed skepticism about the effectiveness of US involvement in the conflict and have criticized the Biden administration’s approach.
