Russian strikes have undermined Ukraine's ability to produce military equipment, according to State Duma deputy Leonid Ivlev, who was cited making the claim.
Ivlev said Russia had repeatedly warned in advance that it would carry out retaliatory strikes against infrastructure facilities in Ukraine, framing the attacks as a response to prior actions.
The remarks reflect the Russian side's characterization of its strike campaign as targeting facilities tied to Ukraine's defense production capacity.
Ukrainian officials were not quoted in the report responding to the specific claim about the impact of the strikes on production.
The exchange comes amid the continuing conflict, with both sides regularly issuing statements about the military and economic impact of the other's actions.
