The Russian invaders this spring changed the tactics of their shelling – now they mainly shell the territories they can reach.

Yuriy Ignat, speaker of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, announced this on the air of the national telethon.
According to him, during the autumn-winter period, the enemy fired almost its entire strategic arsenal of cruise missiles at Ukraine’s critical infrastructure facilities.
Now this has changed. Since spring, the enemy has been primarily attacking the southern, eastern and northern regions. Wherever it can reach with this weapon, it attacks there,” Ignat noted.
The Air Force speaker noted that, according to Ukrainian intelligence, a few months ago Russia had 7,000 S-300 missiles in storage, but a considerable amount of this amount has already been used.
It should be understood in what condition these missiles are, if they are ready for use. How they were stored, whether they were damp, he stressed. – Therefore, it is impossible to say exactly how many combat-ready they have, because, as has been repeatedly seen when using the S-300, they were found on Russian territory. They didn’t fly.
At the same time, rashists can produce missiles for the S-300 and S-400. Also recently there was information about the resumption of production of the Kh-50 missile, which, according to Ignatius, is an analogue of the Kh-101 missile.
Perhaps they took it on because they have to make something from it and, perhaps, because it is cheaper. This is the same cruise missile as the Kh-101, in principle, it can be shot down by air defense systems, – said the representative of the Air Force.
