Ministry Of Defense Claims Russian Armed Forces Successfully Destroyed 1,325 Ukrainian Military Facilities

JAKARTA - The Russian Armed Forces have destroyed 1,325 Ukrainian military infrastructure facilities, Russian Defense Ministry Spokesman, Major General Igor Konashenkov, said Tuesday.

"The Russian Armed Forces have attacked 1,325 Ukrainian military infrastructure facilities, including 43 command and communication centers of the Ukrainian army", he said, quoted by TASS March 2.

According to him, a total of 395 tanks and other armored fighting vehicles, 59 multiple rocket launchers, 179 artillery, and mortar guns. Including 286 military-only motorized vehicles have also been destroyed.

Earlier, a Kremlin spokesman called the supply of Western weapons to Ukraine a dangerous factor, which in no way helped restore order.

"The supply of weapons, other hardware, and ammunition to Ukraine can and will be a very dangerous and destabilizing factor, which in no way will improve stability or order in Ukraine. And in the long run, it will have far more harmful effects", said Dmitry Peskov.

"This just reiterates once again that Russia is taking the right steps in favor of the demilitarization of Ukraine, which in general tends to be aggressive, and often of a criminal design, as happened in the Republics of Lugansk and Donetsk."

Regarding the EU's plans to supply arms to Ukraine, Peskov said the EU is "an association which holds a hostile position towards us and has taken both hostile and hostile actions."

It is known, Russian President Vladimir announced a special military operation on the territory of Eastern Ukraine, stressing that Moscow has no plans to occupy Ukrainian territory, the goal is to demilitarize and denazify the country.

The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that the Russian Armed Forces did not carry out attacks on Ukrainian cities. The ministry stressed that Ukraine's military infrastructure was destroyed by precision weapons and that there was no threat to civilians.
