Ukraine strikes Russian satellite communication facilities in Moscow and Vladimir Oblasts
On June 24, 2026, the Russian Satellite Communications Company reported damage to two key ground facilities in the Moscow and Vladimir Oblasts following Ukrainian drone strikes. These precision attacks were synchronized with the larger offensive against Russian gas infrastructure. By targeting command-and-control satellite links, Ukrainian forces aimed to disrupt Russian military communications and state coordination. This is part of a broadening strategic air campaign that increasingly bypasses front-line defenses to hit high-value targets in the Russian heartland.
