When Russia fired numerous missiles into Ukraine on Tuesday, the aggressor state made a fatal mistake. A rocket accidentally fell over a Russian village in the Voronezh border region. The governor of the region even admits this publicly.
Unauthenticated videos are making the rounds on social networks reportedly showing serious damage to several homes. A bullet accidentally hit the village of Petropavlovka, about 90 miles (140 kilometers) from Ukrainian-controlled territory, the region’s governor, Alexander Gusyev, said on Telegram.
Seven farms damaged
According to the politician, all residents are doing well. However, seven farms were damaged. “There may be damage to the glazing, roofs and supporting structures,” he explains. Some residents were temporarily evacuated.
Gushev spoke of an “accidental release” of the bullet. He provided no information about the type of weapon. Russian media in exile speculate that it could have been a missile.
The governor’s original Telegram message:
This is the place where the accident happened:
The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed the incident
The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed, according to Russian state news agency RIA Novosti, that such an incident occurred around 9 a.m. (local time) during a flight of an aircraft of the Aerospace Forces of the Russian Federation. A committee is investigating the damage.
The population still feels abandoned and now complains online: “Where is Wowka (short for Russian President Vladimir Putin, note)? Is he alive?”
