ROSTOV-ON-DON, January 20. /tass/. Units equipped with Iskander-M missile systems will conduct combat launches at the Kapustin Yar test site in the Astrakhan region. This was reported to journalists in the press service of the Southern Military District (SE).
"A missile compound equipped with the Iskander-M operational-tactical missile system was raised on a training alert. More than 400 military personnel of the Southern Military District as part of units are making a multi-kilometer combined march from the point of permanent deployment to the Kapustin Yar training ground in the Astrakhan region, where they will take part in a tactical exercise with live missile launches," the message says.
It is noted that the missile compound moved to the Astrakhan region from the Krasnodar Territory.
