The Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces have struck a petrochemical plant in Sterlitamak in Russia's Bashkortostan region, which produces aviation fuel, components for aviation kerosene, and synthetic rubber.

Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces, Robert Brovdi, reported this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

"The governor of Bashkortostan will confirm it. 1,500 km deep into the swamp – this is not about defense. It is about the flight time of a freedom-loving Ukrainian Bird," Brovdi wrote.

According to him, the petrochemical plant in Sterlitamak is a producer of aviation fuel, additives for aviation kerosene, and is the only manufacturer in the Russian Federation of neodymium synthetic rubber.
