December 5 ------ Ukraine has conducted a test on new domestically made missiles and is ramping up missile production, President Volodymyr Zelensky said. Zelensky said on the Telegram messaging app that he had received reports from his military on the test. "We can thank our Ukrainian missile developers. We are speeding up the production," he said, without providing further details.
Zelensky said in August that Ukraine had conducted its first test of a domestically-produced ballistic missile. Ukraine, locked in a 33-months-long war against a much bigger and militarily better-equipped Russia, is ramping up domestic production in an attempt to speed up weapons supplies and decrease its dependency on Western aid deliveries.
