Explosions occurred in Khmelnytskyi region after 'Kinzhal' launches.
Explosions heard in Khmelnytskyi region during large-scale air raid alert
After the announcement of a large-scale air raid alert across Ukraine, explosions were heard in Khmelnytskyi region. Russian occupiers attacked the region with 'Kinzhal' missiles. This was reported by 'Suspilne'.
As noted by the Air Force, Russian troops launched two 'Kinzhal' missiles towards Starokostiantyniv. In particular, the Russians have attempted to attack the settlement before.
It is worth noting that Khmelnytskyi region is one of the regions where the largest number of enemy 'Shakheds' have struck during the full-scale war. Recently, the monitoring Telegram channel with a million subscribers 'Mykolaivsky Vanyok' published interesting statistics on Russian air attacks on Starokostiantyniv: since August 2023, more than 60 cruise missiles ('Kalibr' or missiles from TU-95ms) have been launched at the city; up to 10 'Kinzhal' missiles (from MiG-31K); more than 130 'Shakheds'. The majority (about 95%) of all this was shot down by air defense forces (except for 'Kinzhal' missiles, as there is nothing to shoot them down with).
Let us remind you that as of 16:55, an air raid alert was announced in Kyiv and a number of regions in Ukraine. This is related to the missile threat due to the takeoff of MiG-31Ks.
As is known, the production of weapons costs the Russian Federation approximately $1.2 billion every month. In particular, $1.1 billion of this amount goes towards missile production, while about $100 million is spent on drones.
By the way, the effect of Ukrainian fighters destroying military warehouses in Russia is likely to be seen within two to three weeks. The occupiers will have to prioritize their actions on the front line.
