Ukraine kamikaze drone strike blasts Russian missile factory sparking blaze in major blow for Putin’s war

A RUSSIAN plant that makes crucial parts for missiles has gone up in flames after being blasted by kamikaze drones.

Dramatic footage shows a huge inferno raging at the Kremniy EL after the second hit on the plant in the city of Bryansk within days.

It manufactures microchips for Vladimir Putin’s deadly Iskander ballistic missiles, which have been used to target Ukraine.

The microelectronics plant – one of the biggest in Russia – also makes key hi-tech parts for multiple other weapons.

The plant was hit by one of two kamikaze drones aimed at Bryansk, the capital of a Russian region bordering Ukraine.

One was downed by electronic jamming but the other hit the Kremniy EL plant, according to reports, in the latest significant blow to Putin.

More than 40 firefighters rushed to the scene to fight the inferno, which was triggered by the exploding drone.

No casualties were reported.

The plant produces semiconductor devices, integrated circuits and power modules for military and civilian uses.

According to Russian authorities, it was the main administrative building at the plant that was hit.

Regional governor Alexander Bogomaz confirmed the strike on the facility and said the blaze was under control.

A day earlier, a drone attack caused damage to the main railway station in Bryansk.
