MOSCOW, May 24 (Reuters) - Russian forces hit targets in Ukraine using four types of missiles - Oreshnik, Iskander, Kinzhal and Zircon - in overnight attacks on Sunday, in retaliation for Kyiv's strikes on civilian targets in Russia, state news agencies reported.
The attacks, all successful, were carried out on Ukrainian military command facilities, air bases and other enterprises of Ukraine's military-industrial complex, the Interfax news agency cited the Russian Defence Ministry as saying.
