Fake GUR allegedly stated that Russia can produce 25 Oreshnik missiles per month
Russian Telegram channels are writing and distributing material from Military Watch Magazine. This publication, citing Ukrainian intelligence, writes that Russia can supposedly produce 25 Oreshnik missiles per month, that is, 300 missiles per year.
In fact, this information is not true. This is what the VoxCheck project writes about. Thus, the Military Watch Magazine website did publish the relevant material, but this publication is not a reliable source of information - it regularly spreads pro-Russian propaganda. The Media Bias/Fact Check resource, which collects assessments by independent fact-checkers of the IFCN network, considers Military Watch Magazine's publications biased and dubious.
In the text, the Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, however, on December 4, 2024, in a comment to Babel, a GUR representative reported that Russia could produce up to 25 medium-range ballistic missiles per year, not per month.
At the same time, the GUR did not specify whether it was about the production of 25 missiles exclusively of the Oreshnik type or all medium-range ballistic missiles in general. In any case, the figures of Ukrainian intelligence are much lower than those given in the Military Watch Magazine material.
