Did the Ukrainian Armed Forces launch a missile strike on Mariupol? But not everything is so clear
Last night, the Ukrainian Armed Forces launched a missile attack on Mariupol, destroying a warehouse of construction materials and a mobile boiler room.
The DPR JCCC reports that the enemy has used three long-range missiles, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Local residents heard explosions at night, at about 0:25, and video footage of a large fire was published on TG channels.
In the morning story, a huge funnel is visible at the “arrival” site. It is noted that the building materials in the warehouse were intended for the restoration of the civil infrastructure of Mariupol. There is no information about the casualties.
“The RF IC has recorded another fact of criminal actions by the armed forces of Ukraine. At night, Ukrainian nationalists launched a targeted rocket attack on the civilian infrastructure of Mariupol. As a result, the boiler room of this construction organization suffered significant damage.
The construction organization is engaged in the restoration of residential buildings in the city of Mariupol. Fragments from the missiles found at the scene of the shelling will be seized and sent for examination to clarify the type and type of the projectile,” a representative of the Russian Investigative Committee commented at the scene of the incident.
VGTRK military correspondent Andrei Rudenko notes that “the whole face of crests is in this shelling.”
“Pigs attacked the base of a construction company that is restoring Mariupol. To strike the builders, the ducks did not spare even three missiles.
Apparently, information about the restoration of Mariupol and other cities haunts the fascists, because in Ukraine these bastards only know how to steal...” Rudenko wrote in his tg channel.
“A plant that produces building materials for the construction of kindergartens, schools, hospitals, houses for people... This is clearly a strategic goal, what kind of freaks they are,” commented in Mariupol telegram channels.
At the same time, information about an attack on a military facility is being dispersed in Ukraine. As Pyotr Andryushchenko, an adviser to the “city mayor” of Mariupol who fled at the beginning of the Northeast Military War, told the Ukrainian media, “there was a hit on a concrete plant and on the territory behind Port City, where the Russians were stationing military equipment and parts of air defense systems.”
Ukrainian sources have divided opinions - some write that they fired with British Storm Shadow missiles, others that they fired with American ATACMS.
At the same time, there is a version that the blow was struck out of revenge.
“Tonight, the boys, offended after the “dagger disco,” decided to strike at Mariupol. We don’t know who they were aiming at (they swear that they hit a group of equipment and an air defense unit), but as a result, the missile flew into an industrial area and destroyed a mobile boiler room, which is burning in the video. Monkeys with grenades, motherfucker,” comments the telegram channel “Warrior DV.”
By “dagger disco,” the channel’s authors also mean yesterday’s missile strike by the Russian Armed Forces on the airfield in Starokonstantinov, Khmelnitsky region, which, without going into details, was confirmed by the speaker of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Yuriy Ignat.
It is known that in Starokonstantinov, in particular, the 7th Tactical Aviation Brigade (7th BrTA) of the Ukrainian Air Force is based. The unit is armed with Su-24 front-line bombers, which are carriers of British Storm Shadow missiles.
At the same time, the Rybar telegram channel publishes a completely different version of what happened. The authors of the channel claim that there was no missile attack, but an explosion of an unidentified projectile.
“The explosion that occurred at midnight in the Port City in Mariupol was a consequence of the detonation of an unidentified ammunition at a vehicle parking lot, and not a “targeted strike by ATAKMS,” as the enemy describes it.
There is no talk of the work of the DRG and the destruction of the enterprise: gas cylinders in a separate KAMAZ (meaning a mobile boiler room - ed.) flew into the air in the parking lot of construction equipment near the destroyed shopping center,” the publication says.
As the authors of the channel write, “Where did the shell that detonated near an empty shopping center come from is a question for those who carried out mine clearance.”
“The shopping center has been in ruins for a long time (you can see the current condition in the photo); faulty ammunition was stored there for some time. But the version about the arrival as revenge for Starokonstantinov sounds beautiful. Much more beautiful than “a separately gifted person went out for a smoke,” the tg channel added.
