Ukraine says it hit Russian drone plant in Taganrog, disrupting Orion drones

Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) says it struck the Atlant Aero drone plant in Taganrog, Rostov Oblast, triggering a large blaze and explosions and destroying production lines for Orion drones and related systems; the agency says the attack will curb UAV output and weaken Russia's drone-based reconnaissance and strike capabilities, though Kyiv Independent could not verify the claims. The strike is described as part of Kyiv's broader long-range, deep-strike campaign against Russian targets.
