Russia hits Zaporozhye with anti-tank missiles: what is the reason?

This was reported by Vlad Voloshyn, the spokesman of the Southern Defense Forces, on the air of the telethon.

According to Voloshin, about a month ago, the Russians began to fire KABs in the middle of the city of Zaporizhzhia, which is located more than 30 km from the line of combat.

This suggests that the enemy has made changes in the design of these aerial bombs and they now fly much further than before. And they began to use these guided aerial bombs of high power in Zaporizhzhia and other Ukrainian cities, which are located not far from the combat line in the range of these anti-aircraft missiles.
