Today, on September 26, from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m., 3 launches of Kh-47 M2 Kinzhal aeroballistic missiles were recorded from Russian airspace. They were launched in the direction of Starokostiantyniv, Khmelnytskyi region, according to the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
According to preliminary data, there were four MiG-31K fighters in the Russian sky. At the moment, information about the places of arrival or damage is not public.
In this regard, residents of the region are reminded of the need to respond immediately to airborne alarms, especially given the threat of using Kinzhal missiles.
Russia often strikes Starokostiantyniv, a city in the Khmelnytskyi region, due to the location of one of Ukraine's key military airfields.
Earlier, military experts noted that the Russians may strike the region, as they speculated that F-16 fighter jets might be based there. For more information on this topic, see RBC-Ukraine's report.
3rd large-scale alarm in a day
On the morning of September 26, after the Russian night attack, Ukraine declared a large-scale air alert three times due to the takeoff of a Russian MiG-31K fighter jet, which carries Kinzhal air defense missiles, which are a difficult target for Ukrainian air defense.
Russia has launched Kinzhal missiles. In particular, the Russians directed missiles at the city of Starokostiantyniv, Khmelnytskyi region.
During the first alarm, an explosion was heard in Kyiv, but the Kyiv City Military Administration reported that there was no Russian missile attack and no air defense was used.
