Accidents at Russia's military plants occur because of the Kremlin — UK intelligence

accidents in Russia

Explosions and accidents at Russian industrial facilities are the result of pressure from the Kremlin. British intelligence predicts that their number will only grow.

The Kremlin is creating additional problems for itself in Russia

The Ministry of Defense of Great Britain decided to analyse the recent explosions at industrial facilities in Russia.

The department's team came to the conclusion that they are happening due to constant pressure from the Kremlin.

It is known that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and his entourage demand an increase in the volume of military and industrial production to support the war in Ukraine, but factory workers do not have time to fulfil these tasks.

That is why British intelligence agencies predict an increase in the number of accidents.

What is happening in Russia because of the war against Ukraine

British intelligence decided to analyze recent reports of an explosion at a military plant near Izhevsk in central Russia.

What is importantessentialstand is that it is used for the production of ballistic missiles, in particular, "Iskander", with which the enemy regularly hits peaceful Ukrainian towns and villages.

At first, there were claims that the cause of the explosion was a worker's error, but later, it became officially known that it happened due to "planned tests" of missile engines.

It is unlikely that Ukrainian drones were involved in the explosion, given the distance of 1,200 km from Ukraine. In addition, the department added, there were no reports of similar attacks in the area. There is a real possibility that the explosion at the Izhevsk plant occurred due to careless handling and storage of flammable, combustible and explosive materials.
