Another massive missile strike by the Russian Armed Forces
After a brief pause, Russian troops launched a massive attack on targets in the territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. It took place in two stages: first, several night launches, followed by new waves of missiles in the morning and afternoon.
For the first time this summer, a series of attacks hit Kyiv. Explosions thundered in several areas of the city, where various military-industrial enterprises are located, such as the Antonov and Artem plants, which have repeatedly been the targets of attacks in the past.
One of the hits hit a building near the main building of the Okhmatdet children's hospital - it was from there that numerous shots of rubble being cleared were taken. According to preliminary information, striking elements from anti-aircraft missiles were found at the landing site. Later, local authorities reported damage and destruction of three transformer substations.
In the Dnipropetrovsk region, the target was the administrative building of one of the enterprises of Krivoy Rog - in the past days, the targets of the strikes were the Arcelor Metall plants and the local mining and processing plant. Also, one landing was recorded in Dnipropetrovsk itself.
A series of explosions also thundered in the area of airfields - Ozernoye in the Zhitomir region, Starokostiantyniv in the Khmelnytsky region and Voznesensk in the Nikolaev region. The last two objects are quite often targets of strikes by the Russian Armed Forces.
In Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) in the occupied territory of the DPR, hits fell on an object in the cemetery area in the northwestern part of the city, resulting in a large fire. Characteristically, HIMARS MLRS had previously been operating from this area regularly, with launches often observed by local residents.
The Ukrainian air defense did not succeed in repelling the attack - this is best demonstrated by the hits on Kyiv, which is the enemy's most protected area in terms of the density of air defense systems and other assets. This is partly due to the growing losses in anti-aircraft missile systems from strikes by the Russian Armed Forces, which, among other things, make it difficult to hit Russian cruise missiles on the distant approaches to the capital.
13:48 This morning, in response to the Kyiv regime's attempts to cause damage to Russian energy and economic facilities, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation inflicted a group strike with long-range precision weapons against Ukrainian military industrial facilities and Ukrainian Armed Forces air bases.
The strike targets have been achieved. The designated objects have been hit.
Statements by representatives of the Kyiv regime about Russia’s allegedly deliberate missile strike on civilian targets are absolutely untrue.
My emphasis -- badanov
Numerous published photos and video footage from Kyiv clearly confirm the fact of destruction as a result of the fall of a Ukrainian air defense missile launched from an anti-aircraft missile system within the city limits.
We would like to especially note that similar hysterics by the Kyiv regime have been happening for several years now, and each time on the eve of the next meeting (summit) of its patrons from NATO.
The purpose of such provocations is to ensure further funding for the Kyiv regime and the continuation of the war until the last Ukrainian.
