"Do intentionally": Ignat explained why the Russian Federation launches rockets near the border of other countries

The Air Force assured that the Ukrainian air defense forces will certainly protect citizens and themselves, as well as kill all objects that threaten civilian infrastructure. Russian troops specifically operate their missiles near the boundaries of related countries with Ukraine, forcing Ukrainian air defense to knock them down. As a result, debris can fall in the territory of neighboring countries. This was stated by a spokesman for the Armed Forces Command Yuri Ignat.

"It is clear that by launching through the territory of Belarus or Moldova, they try to launch missiles closer to the border to work out our air defense system," he said. Ignatus stated that the Ukrainian air defense forces would certainly protect citizens and themselves, as well as knock down all objects that threaten civilian infrastructure. At the same time, he noted that the fragments of the beaten rocket can fly 10 kilometers, falling in the territory of neighboring states.

"They understand it well and specifically provoke such actions. Therefore, this is another image of a cynical Russian leadership that makes such provocations," Ignat added. We will remind, earlier Focus reported that the speaker of the Air Force of the Armed Forces Yuriy Ignat stated that during a massive missile strike in Ukraine on February 10, Russian troops attacked Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhya region with a record number of C-300 missiles.
