Four UAV production workshops damaged at Izhevsk plant "Kupol" after yesterday's attack. Work at the plant has been suspended

According to ASTRA sources in the region's emergency services, as a result of yesterday's arrival of two UAVs at IEMZ "Kupol" in Izhevsk, the building of the 1st building, where drones are produced, was damaged.

One drone flew into the window of workshop 106, the second hit the roof of workshop 110 and exploded. A fire broke out. As a result, the roof of the building collapsed over an area of 1,300 square meters.

The strike damaged the workshops where they do metalworking, soldering of microcircuits, and where finished UAVs are manufactured.

The production site of the enterprise at this address is responsible for the development and production of microcircuits for military drones. They work there around the clock in three shifts, ASTRA learned. After the attack, the work of the enterprise was suspended.

Three Kupol employees were killed, another 45 were injured, 35 of whom were hospitalized.

The attack was previously confirmed by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. "Precise hits on building No. 1 at site No. 1 have been confirmed. A fire has been recorded. The results of the damage are being clarified," the department said.

The Izhevsk Electromechanical Plant Kupol is one of the largest enterprises in the Russian defense industry, established in 1957. It produces the Tor-M2E air defense missile system, as well as the Saman-M1 and Adjutant target training systems, and provides their maintenance, the director of the enterprise, Fanil Ziyatdinov, reported in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta in 2023. After the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, in July 2023, according to Reuters, the plant began producing Harpia-A1 attack drones using engines and components from China.

The Kupol plant is included in the sanctions lists of the European Union, the United States, Canada, >Ukraine and Switzerland.
