Ukraine strikes Russia’s Iskander launch vehicle maker in Volgograd

Ukraine utilized FP-5 Flamingo cruise missiles to strike the Titan-Barrikady plant in Volgograd's Krasnooktyabrsky District at least three times on June 27. This facility is a critical manufacturer of Iskander launch vehicles. Simultaneously, Russia experiences deepening unease as Ukraine intensifies long-range strikes. Despite a sharp decline in the stock market and worsening fuel shortages, experts suggest Vladimir Putin is unlikely to change his course, reflecting a volatile situation within the Russian defense and economic sectors.
