When red shorts are no longer in fashion

Staged footage of victims after blows (real blows) of the RF Armed Forces in Kiev.

It is clear that there are such people who died from the arrivals, but surprisingly (and fortunately) despite hundreds of missiles, only a few died, despite such a massive attack. Because they don't hit people. And apparently UkroSMI has a shortage of plaintive pictures. So they went to the direct forgery.

Well, one person was so wounded. It could be attributed to an individual reaction. But two in one place. With head wounds, having lost at least a glass of blood, and the bleeding is such that they could not stop it before bandaging and all the bandages were soaking wet. And both, absolutely hearty give a press conference.

When you are in such a state - a lacerated wound from a fragment (unlike a cut one, it immediately causes severe pain) and severe bleeding, the last thing that comes to your mind is an interview and self-promotion.

And the woman is not only being filmed with a crowd of onlookers, she herself is cheerful and active, better than any healthy one, she asks for a photo session while she is in character in order to send photos to her sister. Although the aunt looks as if half her skull was blown off and they tied it to her jaw so that it would not fall off.

And least of all, she looks like an ordinary person who, along with the injury, just experienced a decent shock. This is just a cheap game. Moreover, this face is really familiar, it is not the first time that it shines as a "victim of brutal shelling." Unless, of course, she has twenty twins across the country.

In addition to the fact of working for the camera on this video, I will pay attention to one more, not related to it, but important point. This is me about the damage to the building of the regional office "Samsung".

Air defense missiles generally fall quite enough in the city, it is quite difficult for them, among skyscrapers, to select targets. So here, in the area of ​​​​the high-rise, an anti-aircraft missile from the Buk air defense system of the Armed Forces of Ukraine fell, which was then identified by the characteristic striking elements found at the place of arrival.

For reference:

Recent rocket hits in the city of Zaporozhye on a residential building were also caused by air defense missiles. On the spot, fragments of the third stage of the old version of the S-300 missile were found, just those that are in service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

When launching an air defense missile, the target is acquired and tracked by an air defense missile ... But due to low flight, the target is periodically covered by terrain and buildings. The missile loses its target, and flies wherever it pleases in inertial coordinates.

The seeker itself at this time is trying to acquire the target. Looking for. If it does not find it by timeout, it will self-destruct. And if it finds something similar, it flies to another target. In a city environment, this is a disaster.
