Missile attack on the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in occupied Sevastopol
Adress: Ukraine, Crimea, Sevastopol, st. Voronina, 2
On September 22, during a meeting of the Russian military, several Storm Shadow cruise missiles hit the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in occupied Sevastopol. This attack was preceded by a massive drone attack. In general, many populated areas of Crimea are attacked again that day, but the attack on the headquarters overshadows everything. At first, the Crimean authorities try to pretend that nothing happened and that all the missiles were shot down, but the more information about this attack comes out, the harder it is to lie to the authorities. Judging by the dozens of ambulances seen on the streets, there was not just one death, as the Sevastopol authorities claim, but many more. It is interesting that the impact of several missiles was so accurate that people passing by the headquarters building were not harmed at all, even the glass in the windows of neighboring houses remained intact. Local telegram channels write about at least 30 wounded from the headquarters building, who were taken to hospitals. For the Russian Federation, and especially for Putin, this missile strike is tantamount to spitting in the face. Russian propaganda is so stunned that it is simply speechless for several hours.
