Ukraine continues the “demilitarization” of the Russian Federation. On the night of September 23, the “Kamensky” plant, where fuel for Russian rocket engines is produced, was attacked in the Rostov region.

It is known that the gas supply pipe at the enterprise was damaged as a result of the attack. This was reported by the Russian publication ASTRA with reference to sources.

“On the night of September 22-23, an anti-aircraft missile was fired in the city of Kamiansk-Shakhtynskyi in the Rostov region. According to ASTRA sources in the emergency services of the region, 2 unidentified missiles (presumably Neptune) were shot down. When one of the downed missiles fell on a gas supply pipe was damaged on the territory of the enterprise, and nearby grass also caught fire.

The federal state-owned enterprise “Kombinat “Kamenskyi” is one of the largest chemical enterprises in the south of the Russian Federation, it is also considered a city-forming enterprise of the city of Kamensk-Shakhtynskyi. However, the remarkable target chosen by the Ukrainian soldiers for the attack is not this.

As ASTRA writes, back in 2011, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) partially 
declassified data related to the creation of the RT-2 intercontinental ballistic missile on solid fuel in the USSR (SS-13 Savage in the American classification). In CIA documents, the plant in Kamiansk-Shakhtynsk was indicated as the place of production of composite fuel for rocket engines of this type, and test facilities were also located there.

By the way, the “Kamensky Plant” has received attention from the Defense Forces of Ukraine before. Yes, the enterprise was already attacked in April of this year. However, drones flew over it then.

“According to the updated data of the duty services, as a result of the fall of the UAV debris, the glazing of the industrial building in Kamiansk was damaged. An employee of the enterprise received light injuries in the form of cuts, he was given first aid, he refused to be hospitalized. Investigative measures are being carried out,” he wrote in the morning On April 18, the governor of the Rostov region, Vyacheslav Golubev.

It is known that three drones tried to attack the enterprise at that time.

We will remind the reader that on September 24, in Taganrog, Russia, a complaint was made about the “falling” of a drone. As a result, a powerful fire broke out in the industrial zone of the city. Local authorities claim that a timber warehouse is on fire.

  1. Yet more damage by debris. It’s time the orcs come up with a better excuse for the failure of their miserable air defence.
