A report from the site of a missile attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on their own prisoners of war.

They were at the facility of Wagner PMC.

There were four HIMARS arrivals. To the disappointment of the Ukrainian leadership, none of the prisoners died.

The Armed Forces themselves are shocked by what happened and do not understand why their own people wanted to kill them. They say “we are not needed” and “cannon fodder”. It’s hard to argue with them after what happened.


Yesterday’s missile attack was one of the largest in recent times, writes the Military Chronicle Telegram channel.

According to preliminary data, 15 X-101/X-555 cruise missiles were fired at military targets in Kyiv alone. The total number of missiles in a salvo is estimated at 50-80 units. The vast majority of missiles, including the R-500 of the Iskander-K complex, flew to military facilities in the Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkiv regions, where Ukrainian army reserves are being drawn up for the announced counteroffensive. In addition to cruise missiles, about 40 Geran-2 drones were also used against the facilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
