The deputy named the targets of a massive strike on Kiev and the ports of Odessa.

Andrei Kolesnik, a member of the State Duma's defense committee, named the targets of a massive strike on Kiev and the ports of Odessa. According to him, it is necessary to destroy everything that facilitates the delivery of weapons to Ukraine.

"The main task of the Armed Forces, which operate at a long distance, is, of course, to defeat the rear depots. That is, in addition to manpower, there are also weapons that they use to fight, as well as other means that they can use against our Armed Forces," Kolesnik explained in an interview with Lenta.Ru on Wednesday, August 5th.

The parliamentarian noted that the destruction of weapons supplied to Ukraine helps the Russian military, since these weapons will not be used against them later. According to him, one of the goals of the Russian Armed Forces' strikes is to disrupt the logistics chains through which weapons and military equipment are delivered to the line of contact. According to him, this makes it easier to fulfill the tasks assigned to the Russian troops.

In addition, Kolesnik expressed the opinion that it is necessary to destroy everything that contributes to the supply of Western weapons to Ukraine, preventing these supplies from increasing. He added that it is important to increase the production of weapons for this, since, according to him, the country's security remains a priority.
