The Kh-101 missiles, which the Russian army launched over Ukrainian regions on August 15, were released in April of this year and contained approximately three dozen foreign microcircuits.
Rubryka reports, referring to the statement of the head of the Office of the President, Andrii Yermak.
"This night, the Russians fired at Ukraine, particularly with Kh-101 missiles. These missiles were manufactured by the Russians this year. There are approximately 30 foreign microcircuits in the Kh-101, which were released in April," he said.
Yermak added that Ukraine currently collects information about foreign parts in Russian missiles and regularly communicates with partners on this matter.
The head of the President's Office pointed out that partner governments, in turn, work with manufacturers and suppliers of microcircuits.
"Restrictions have already been introduced, but sanctions need strengthening. Russia cannot obtain critical components and manufacture missiles. The McFaul-Yermak group provides relevant proposals," Yermak summarized.
The war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine has already become the most technologically extensive in history, which is why sanctions and other solutions are necessary to weaken the military and economic potential of the aggressor.
