Russia says it will attack Ukrainian arms factories

Russia said Monday it planned to attack Ukrainian arms factories in retaliation for a Ukrainian strike on the separatist-controlled city of Donetsk and urged workers and locals to stay away.

The Defense Ministry said in a statement that Russia believed that Ukraine had used cluster munitions in a densely populated area of ​​Donetsk.

He said Russian forces would respond by “disabling the operations of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex that manufactures, repairs and restores weapons used by nationalists to commit war crimes.”

The statement added: “We urge the citizens of Ukraine working in these companies, as well as the residents of neighboring housing estates, to leave the areas of potential danger.”
