According to the General Staff, on the night of February 12, Ukrainian forces hit a large arsenal for the integrated storage of missiles, ammunition, and explosives belonging to the Main Missile and Artillery Directorate of Russia's Ministry of Defense. The facility is located near the settlement of Kotluban in Russia's Volgograd region.
