The mayor of the city, Terekhov, claims that the Russian Armed Forces hit supposedly peaceful objects with S-300 missiles. He did not mention that a 220 mm caliber MLRS had been preparing to open fire nearby.

Eyewitness footage clearly shows a burned-out Uragan and escort vehicles lying near the arrival site. Terekhov’s report contained none of this.

Apparently, this area has been under close UAV surveillance for a long time. Therefore, it was possible to locate the launcher quickly and hit it. Presumably another SAM was destroyed at the same position, probably a SAMP-T.

The footage of the "Uragan" hit apparently appeared on the Internet by accident. Recall, the Ukraine has introduced criminal liability for publishing the results of strikes on military facilities.
