Ukrainian forces launched a missile strike on June 5 targeting a concentration of Russian missile troops near the city of Klintsy in Russia’s Bryansk Oblast, the General Staff of Ukraine’s Armed Forces reported.
The strike reportedly destroyed one Iskander missile launcher and seriously damaged two others. The targeted unit, part of Russia’s 26th Missile Brigade, had attempted to fire on Ukrainian territory — likely aiming at Kyiv — before it was hit, according to the military.
“Thanks to effective reconnaissance and the coordinated efforts of the Armed Forces and the Security Service of Ukraine, the targets were successfully hit,” the General Staff said.
I do wonder if Russia was planning on responding with these, and this is why they issued a ‘we’ll respond when we feel like it’ follow up.
They launched an Oreshnik, their biggest, hardest-to-intercept missile, a couple of days ago but it exploded due to bad maintenance and rained down over Kazahkstan.
Nah, they threw a temper tantrum this night, launching a lot of drones and whatever they had left of Tu jets to bomb Ukrainian cities again.
Just shows how fragile and out of options they really are.
