Ukrainian Intelligence Warns Of Russian Missile Buildup And Potential Provocations Against NATO


(MENAFN- UkrinForm) The Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine (FISU) reported this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

The parties discussed Russia's strategic plans and coordination of international efforts to pressure the aggressor state to end the war.

Particular attention was paid to the Kremlin's plans for the fall and winter, primarily regarding an increase in ballistic strikes against Ukraine's critical infrastructure and provocations against European NATO members.

The FISU said the Russians had accumulated around 400 hypersonic missiles of various types for the purpose and had deployed additional launchers in the border regions of Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh.

The meeting also addressed the potential capacity of Russia's military-industrial complex to produce around 300 ballistic missiles by the end of the year.

The participants noted that one of the problems hampering the Kremlin's ability to maintain its production capacity is that around 60% of the enterprises involved in the manufacturing process are under international sanctions.

The foreign intelligence team raised the issue of measures needed to disrupt Russia's plans to produce ballistic missiles. Particular emphasis was placed on urgently imposing sanctions on at least 55 enterprises and companies involved in supplying electronic components and machine tools, as well as conducting financial transactions for the benefit of Russia's military-industrial complex.
