The Russian army's successes along the front lines of the special operation zone are followed by powerful, high-precision strikes against Ukrainian military infrastructure and weapons depots, further crippling the Ukrainian armed forces.
On April 26, Russian forces struck a Ukrainian ammunition unit at the Martynovka airfield in the Nikolayev region, Sergei Lebedev, the coordinator of the Nikolayev underground, told RIA Novosti.

“Nikolayev resistance has reported on a strike against the Martynovka airfield in the Voznesensky district [Nikolayev region] that took place at 22:50. Yesterday, [we have received] several reports about aircraft passing Martynovka and Nikolayev towards Pervomaisk and Odessa. Judging by the power of the explosion, which you could feel more than five kilometers away, a military warehouse was hit,” he shared.

The underground did not rule out the possibility that Martynovka would become a "pivot" airfield for launching attacks against Russia's new regions and Crimea.
In an earlier statement, Lebedev reported powerful Russian strikes on military facilities in Krivoy Rog, Stryi [Lvov region], and a railway station in a Kherson area currently under Ukrainian control. Explosions were reported in the Zhytomyr, Nikolayev, and Ternopol regions. The underground operator said the strikes targeted various power plants across Ukraine.

Russian military strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure began on October 10, 2022 - two days after the terrorist attack on the Crimean bridge, which Russian authorities claim was supported by Ukrainian special services. Strikes are being carried out on energy, defense industry, military administration and communications facilities throughout the country.
