Enemy twice fired missiles at oil depot and defense plant in Lviv

The Russian forces launched rocket attacks on an oil depot and a defense plant in Lviv on Saturday.

Head of the Lviv Regional Military Administration Maksym Kozytskyi said this at a briefing, Ukrinform reports.

"Today there were two strikes on critical infrastructure. One hit an oil depot in the city of Lviv, in a residential area. The second hit a defense object, the plant, which is also located in a residential area,” Kozytskyi said.

According to him, there were two strikes on each of the objects. Fire is being extinguished at both sites. Five people have been injured.

In turn, Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovyi noted that missile strikes on Lviv were being launched for the second time in a week. Last time, the enemy also targeted infrastructure. The damage is quite serious.

The mayor also noted that with today's attacks, Russia “sends greetings” to U.S. President Joe Biden, who is in Poland.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the beginning of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops have been shelling and destroying key infrastructure facilities, conducting massive shelling of residential areas of Ukrainian cities and villages using artillery, multiple rocket launchers and ballistic missiles.
