Russia’s defence ministry confirms the missile strike practise by Baltic fleet in Kaliningrad area

The Russian defence ministry said its forces in Baltic fleet practised a nuclear-capable missile strike successfully along with short-range ballistic Iskander operational and tactical missile complexes in the western enclave of Kaliningrad region.

“As part of the combat training of the Baltic Fleet’s forces in the Kaliningrad region, a simulated missile strike exercise was carried out with the Iskander operational and tactical missile complexes,” the defence ministry said in a statement.

The renewed military drill comes at the time Russia’s invasion of Ukraine marked its 70th day, in which thousands have been killed and millions have been displaced. In the combat training drill, the soldiers stealthily moved rocket launchers to a designated spot and fired the missile at the mock enemy’s location, the defence ministry said.

“In the course of the exercise, the rocket launchers moved stealthily to the designated position area, where, having equipped launching positions, they carried out electronic single and group launches at targets simulating missile launchers, airfields, protected facilities, the concentration of military equipment and the command posts of the mock enemy,” it said.
