Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu visited the military cosmodrome Wednesday, while one of his deputies was sent to pre-trial detention on bribery charges.

The Russian Defence Ministry released a video Wednesday showing Shoigu touring the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in the Arkhangelsk region and inspecting the production of Angara rockets.

Shoigu said the military has already launched six rockets and plans to launch three more.

Meanwhile, two Russian S-300 missiles struck Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city near the border with Russia, during the night, injuring six people, and another two hit the Kharkiv region town of Zolochiv where no casualties were reported, local officials said.
