The Russian military stated on Saturday that it used sea-launched Kalibr cruise missiles to destroy a large cargo of Western arms in Ukraine’s Zhytomyr area, west of Kyiv.

The operation, according to the defence ministry, targeted “a large batch of weapons and military equipment delivered from the USA and European countries” for Ukrainian soldiers in the eastern Donbas region, where the fighting is focused.

According to the claim, which Reuters could not independently verify, Russian missiles hit gasoline storage facilities near Odesa on the Black Sea coast, shooting down two Ukrainian Su-25 planes and 14 drones, according to the claim.

The defence ministry also said Russia has targeted multiple Ukrainian command positions in its latest briefing on the battle, which Russia refers to as a “special military operation.”

Since Russia’s incursion on February 24, the West has increased weaponry deliveries to Ukraine, which Russia’s military is attempting to intercept and destroy.

Moscow claims that the United States and its allies are conducting a “proxy war” against Russia by supplying armaments to Kyiv and imposing harsh sanctions on the Russian economy.
