Details: The source of El Mundo said that some of these factories are located underground, while others are hidden behind "huge scenery".
El Mundo's source also noted that the issue of keeping the location of these plants secret is of particular concern to Kyiv, as "traitors" have already been found among the employees of the factories.
It is noted that the construction of the hidden network of production facilities is being overseen by Oleksandr Kamyshin, the Minister of Strategic Industries.
El Mundo wrote that these factories are currently producing ammunition, all types of drones, Kozak armoured combat vehicles, Neptune missiles and Stugna anti-tank missiles.
El Mundo states that production volumes have tripled since the 2023 launch, the source said.
Background: In April, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said there were positive developments in arms production, especially when it came to the production of drones and shells. "I am always grateful to every company and every manufacturer that provides our Defence and Security Forces with everything they need," the president said.
