The British Ministry of Defense explained why the Russian Federation hits Kryvyi Rih

The Russian army's strikes on Kryvyi Rih are part of Russia's strategy of intimidation in the war. We are talking about Russian strikes on the city power grid and a dam on the Ingulets River in Kryvyi Rih. This was stated by British intelligence.

Since February 24, 2022, Russia has launched several thousand long-range missiles in Ukraine. However, over the past seven days, Russia has increased its targeting of civilian infrastructure, even where it is likely not to experience an immediate military effect, the British Ministry of Defense said.

Intelligence officials stressed that the successes of the Ukrainian army at the front became the reason for such "fury".

We add that Kryvyi Rih is the hometown of the Ukrainian president.

Recall that on September 14, the Russian military launched a missile attack on Kryvyi Rih. The purpose of the occupiers were hydraulic structures. As a result of the impact, the Ingulets River overflowed its banks and flooded several hundred houses.
