Apparently the Ukrainian government is very upset after the recent Russian missile attacks. While Kiev denies statements from Moscow that a Kinzhal hypersonic missile destroyed a component of the Patriot missile defense system, there have been numerous media reports of possible damage. Meanwhile, six bloggers have been forced into public repentance by the Ukrainian secret service SBU for filming anti-aircraft systems in the Ukrainian capital.
“I fully admit my guilt, ask the Ukrainian people for forgiveness and promise never to do this again,” said a blogger in the video distributed by the SBU on Wednesday. The men and women had posted photos on social networks showing the positions of Ukrainian air defenses.
Kiev: All missiles intercepted
The Ukrainian army stressed that all missiles had been intercepted on time on Tuesday and only debris caused damage. The bloggers face up to eight years in prison for spreading military information.
American specialists inspect the Patriot system
Meanwhile, there is mounting evidence that at least one launcher of the US-supplied defense system has been damaged. The news channel CNN quoted from conversations with three government officials. According to these sources, US specialists are already out to inspect the affected facility. However, according to the information, it will not be necessary to repair the damage abroad.
Kremlin speaks of successful ‘precision attack’
The Russian government, of course, exploits this “success” for its propaganda purposes and speaks of a “precision attack” – not only on the Patriot system, but also on ammunition depots.
