Flamingo strike on key Russian ballistic missile factory

"The Votkinsk Machine Building Plant — a key missile production hub in Russia's Udmurt
Republic — was struck during a drone and missile attack late in the evening of Feb. 20, according to local eyewitnesses and Telegram monitoring channels.
The Votkinsk Plant is a strategic, state-owned defense enterprise and one of the most important missile factories in
Russia. It produces short-range Iskander-M ballistic missiles — used frequently in attacks against Ukraine — and intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), capable of carrying nuclear warheads as far as the United States.
It is also suspected that the plant produces
Russia's new Oreshnik ICBM.
According to independent
Russian Telegram news channel Astra, at least 11 people were reported injured as a result of the attack." KI
