Defense Forces strike plant near St. Petersburg that produces missile fuel for Iskander systems

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine announced this on Facebook , according to Ukrinform. "Every Iskander missile that flies toward a Ukrainian city has its own history, and that history does not begin at the launch platform, but in the workshop of a plant where the fuel that propels the missile into the sky is manufactured. One such facility, JSC Morozov Plant, is located near St. Petersburg," the statement said. According to the General Staff, the facility manufactures explosives. It also developed solid rocket fuel for the engines of Topol-M missile systems and manufactures and supplies solid-propellant charges for the 9X820 engines used in 9M723 Iskander-M ballistic missiles.
