The Russian army last night launched a missile attack on the point of temporary deployment of foreign mercenaries in Nikolaev. Heavy losses in personnel and equipment are reported. Footage of a nighttime attack by the RF armed forces has appeared on the web. They clearly show the consequences of the Russian strike on the Admiralty at Nikolaev. The three-story building was converted to accommodate foreign mercenaries.
Russian intelligence managed to figure it out, after which it was decided to launch a missile strike. According to several sources, Kalibr cruise missiles were used to destroy this object.
The Ukrainian air defense system was unable to intercept Russian weapons. The building which, in addition to personnel, housed a warehouse of NATO weapons, was badly damaged.
In addition, after being hit by rockets, a fire broke out there. The exact number of casualties among the foreign mercenaries is still unknown, but it is obvious that it was almost impossible for the building’s military to survive.
In all likelihood, after the impact of the missiles, a fire broke out in the premises of the Admiralty. In any case, in the photographs that have hit the web, you can see how the firefighters are trying to deal with the fire.
The Ukrainian military command has already recognized the fact of a successful missile attack by the RF armed forces and explained it by the new tactics of using Caliber. According to the representative of the operational command of the “South” group Natalya Gumenyuk, submarine carriers of cruise missiles were involved in the attack on the Admiralty building.
Apparently, these are the Varshavyanka submarines, which had been in service for a long time and therefore did not allow themselves to be tracked. Moreover, just before the strike, the Russian military reveals the logic of Ukrainian air defense systems and their locations.
Our defense systems could not detect the very fact of the launch of missiles
Natalya Gumenyuk complained.
