    I’m not sure that Ukrainian defense industry releasing photos of the inside of facilities used in defense production is a good idea. Ukrainian defense industry installations will be a priority Russian target, and photos, even those showing only interiors, might potentially be used to geolocate them.

    Though in all fairness to Metinvest, I suppose that the photos themselves might perhaps just be part of the grandest decoy that they have created…

      It might be decoy, or not, it doesn’t make much difference. I grew up in comparitively small city in Ukraine, and we had dozens(if not hundreds) of factories/storage areas/farmhouses that look just like that
