Russian Aerospace Forces strike Starokostiantyniv airfield with Kinzhal missiles Ukrainian Armed Forces

On the evening of July 5, an air raid alert and missile threat were declared throughout Ukraine. The Ukrainian Air Force reported the takeoff of Russian Aerospace Forces MiG-31K fighters and the launch of Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missiles at Ukrainian territory.

Some time later, publications about explosions at the Starokostiantyniv military airfield in the Khmelnytsky region appeared on the Internet. After another short period, data appeared about new launches of "Kinzhals" and subsequent landings at the specified facility.



It should be noted that on the night of July 5, the Russian Armed Forces had already carried out massive impact on the Starokonstantinov area using the Geran-2 kamikaze UAV. Probably, additional reconnaissance showed that more was needed. No one would use the Kinzhals for no reason, i.e. there was a very good reason.

More precise details on the results of the flights are not yet known, but they will definitely be. The use of "Kinzhals" indicates that the Ukrainian Armed Forces attempted to relocate the camouflaged (hidden) aircraft that were attacked while preparing for flights.

We remind you that this airfield is home to American-made F-16 fighters. They were given to Ukraine by its European allies.
