Explosions in Boryspil, Kyiv Oblast

Another group is approaching from the southeast

Over eastern Kyiv

the 2 from earlier were shot down over southern Kyiv

Two of the interceptions.

Additional missiles are flying in from the east

Approaching Brovary

Explosions in Brovary

One more group is flying in from Cherkasy Oblast. About 120 km away

One of these missiles was shot down east of Kyiv

They disappeared over Cherkasy Oblast.

Ukrainian airspace appears to be clear of missiles.

The group re-appeared, flying past Drabiv, Cherkasy Oblast, to Boryspil, Kyiv Oblast.

Might be a single missile.

Disappeared again.

The main part of the missile attack appears to be over. At least 75 missiles of various types were used. I will publish a full report + the consequences later on.

Thank you for following along!

There is a threat of another large-scale missile attack being carried out on Ukraine in the coming days.

During tonight's attack, only 8 Iskander-M ballistic missiles were launched - less than half of the total accumulated at Bryansk and Kursk Oblasts. Additionally, only 2 Kn-23 ballistic missiles were launched.

If this attack happens, the target will likely be Kyiv. Large numbers of Geran-4 jet-drones and Banderol cruise missiles would likely also be used.

At least 75% (30/40) of the Kh-101 cruise missiles launched by Russia tonight were intercepted by Ukrainian air defence.

Additionally, around 6 out of 8 of the Kalibr cruise missiles, and approximately 2/6 of the Kh-59/69 cruise missiles were shot down.

None of the Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Kn-23 ballistic missiles, or Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles were shot down due to a lack of Patriot interceptor missiles. Only 2 PAC-2/3 interceptors were launched, and they failed to shoot anything down.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that large fires broke out at the Antonov Aircraft Plant in Kyiv following several Russian missile strikes.

A mix of Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles, and Kalibr cruise missiles struck this facility.

According to my information, the main administrative building was partially split in half by the strikes, resulting in severe structural damage, while large fires broke out at the nearby production units.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that a large fire broke out at an industrial zone in western Kyiv (50.446792, 30.391383) following Russian Iskander-M, Zircon, and Kalibr strikes.
