The weapon apparently malfunctioned and came down ‘almost intact’. On the same day, the Russians have released a video shown a Storm Shadow they’ve found. Seven were claimed as shot down by the PSU, but a least one demolished a number of homes in Lviv, while – apparently – missing its actual target: the local SBU HQ. On 6 July, the Russians attacked Ukraine with a total of 10 Kalibr cruise missiles. I consider that a good sign: that ‘corner’ of the frontline was something like ‘deep in the Russian backyard’ already since late February the last year. As far as I know, this was the first Ukrainian strike with HIMARS or MLRS in the Volnovakha area. What exactly was the VSRF targeting there: sorry, no idea.Įarly on 5 July, the PSU hit a POL- and ammo-depots in Makivka (the Russians reacted with claims that the ZSU targeted the local hospital, nearby, which all proved lies : a hospital did suffer damage from overpressure and debris, though), and the administration building in the occupied Volnovakha – apparently, both by M142 HIMARS or M270 MLRS. At least 31 civilians were wounded, including 10 children and 2 infants. On 4 July, the Russians targeted the centre of Pervomaisky, in the Kharkiv Oblast, with an Iskander missile. Thus, once again, I’ll ignore all of the usual political ping-pong, and get straight to what matters. 500 since Putin’s all-out invasion, and I’m at least three days ‘late’ with my next ‘regular’ update: sorry, was busy with getting a few additional books into the print (no less than two of these will be Ukraine-related, but more about this at some other opportunity).
