Details: Zelenskyy reported hearing a report from Yevhen Khmara, acting Head of the Security Service.

Quote: "There are solid results, and I approved new tasks for the Service – new combat operations. We will continue to weaken the enemy.

I also want to commend our military – they know exactly who I mean – for their ability to reach even such targets as an Oreshnik launch site. Our Flamingos [missiles] did their job. There are tangible results as well from units on the front line."

Background: It became known on 5 February that Ukraine's defence forces had carried out a series of strikes in January, including with Flamingo missiles, on the Kapustin Yar range in Russia's Astrakhan Oblast, where the Russians have deployed the Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile system.
