Governor blasts Ukraine for striking missile plant at shift's end

Original: A Russian governor accused Ukraine of "particular cynicism" for bombing an Iskander missile plant at 6 PM because worker

A Russian regional governor accused Ukraine of what he called "particular cynicism" for striking an Iskander ballistic missile plant at 6 PM, when workers were leaving for the day. Critics responded that the timing complaint rings hollow given that Russia has struck Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure throughout the war, and that a weapons factory is a legitimate military target regardless of working hours.

Why now: The governor's framing of a weapons factory strike as cynical sparked debate over what counts as legitimate targeting in the war.

Evidence

• A Russian governor accused Ukraine of "particular cynicism" for bombing an Iskander missile plant at 6 PM because workers were heading home. If a ballistic missile factory is off-limits when the shift ends, Russia expects total war to keep office hours. 1/ · actfast · 6.1K
