The Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to launch a missile strike on Kerch and the Crimean Bridge

CrimeaPRESS reports:

The Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to strike the Crimean Bridge and Kerch. It fits perfectly into the logic of the enemy — to “sting” more painfully on a national holiday of the Russian Federation. All missiles (presumably Western «Storm Shadow») are shot down. The wreckage of one of them fell in the area of ​​the Kerch shipyard.

In the area of ​​the shipyard named after. Butoma in Kerch air defense worked, part of the fragments of downed missiles fell onto the territory of one of the dry docks. There were no casualties. Stay calm and trust only official sources of information— reported Head of the Republic of Crimea Sergei Aksyonov.

Let’s say right away: in fact, this is the only official information for today. The Russian Ministry of Defense has not yet commented on the enemy missile attack. Various data are being distributed on Telegram: from 12 to 16 downed missiles. Perhaps the most complete and balanced report on the Saturday incident Telegram channel «Fisherman»:

About half an hour ago (at about 16:00) four carriers of Storm Shadow/SCALP Su-24M cruise missiles took off from Starokonstantinov in the Khmelnitsky region. They are flying in an easterly direction, and it is not yet clear whether they are going straight to launch missiles or will land at one of the airfields to load the Storms, as was the case the last time.

Still, for the launch…

But it is not a fact that all the missiles were launched towards Crimea. Roughly speaking, 4 aircraft — 4 missile carriers. After special modernization, the Su-24 (these are the “main” aircraft of the Ukrainian Armed Forces) can launch from two to six missiles at the same time. So the number 16 doesn’t look so fantastic. But some Storm Shadows went to Berdyansk. Where, to be fair, they were also shot down by our air defense systems.

According to preliminary data, 3 Storm Shadow missiles were shot down in the sky above the city — the sea gate of the Zaporozhye region.writes the channel «Two Majors».

So, official data is scant, but one thing is extremely clear — the enemy is not sitting back and is certainly not preparing to surrender. On the contrary, he is trying to cause mischief and attack infrastructure facilities in the south of our country.
