The line 20-30 km from the line of clashes and the state border, from Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkov, Nikolaev, Zaporozhye, to the Odessa region, is suffering.
The spokesman of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Yuriy Ignat, said that the Russian army is increasingly using guided bombs against the frontline regions of Ukraine. He said this on the air of the telethon.
According to Ignat, not having enough means to deliver long-range strikes, the Russians are using what they have on the front line.
This is rocket artillery, there are weapons that can hit more than 100 km, such as Tornado, as well as S-300 missiles, the range can be up to 150 km when working on ground targets. Well, guided bombs too. This is a new challenge, new dangers for us, against which we have to counter, we have to make decisions on this matter as soon as possible,” he said.
Ignat added that the Russian Federation will increase production of these bombs.
“The line 20-30 km from the line of clashes and from the state border, from Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Nikolaev, Zaporozhye, to the Odessa region, is suffering,” he said.
The Air Force spokesman emphasized the need to strengthen long-range air defense and expect a positive decision on aircraft that can fight these threats.
“Many people in the West are afraid that there may be an increase, that we can destroy their aircraft on the territory of the Russian Federation. I want to say that the presence of such aircraft in Ukraine in the front-line regions, such as Chernihiv and Sumy, will show a desire to be closer,” said Ignat.
It was previously reported that the Russian Federation used planning bombs weighing 1.5 tons in Ukraine.
Loitering air bombs can fly tens of kilometers, and to intercept them, Ukraine needs modern multifunctional aircraft.
