1 impact in northwestern Kyiv

Another impact. All clear now.

So far, 18 Iskander-Ms and 8 Zircons have struck Kyiv. 2 other Zircons struck Poltava Oblast. 28 missiles total now.

Here's the approximate flight map of Russian missiles tonight.

The following has been launched:

~10 Iskander-M ballistic missiles from OTRK installations northwest of Klintsy, Bryansk Oblast.

~6 Iskander-M ballistic missiles from OTRK installations southeast of Klintsy, Bryansk Oblast.

~2 Iskander-M ballistic missiles from OTRK installations near Zheleznogorsk, Kursk Oblast.

~6 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles launched from ground-based installations near Manturovo, Kursk Oblast.

~4 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles launched from ground-based installations near Millerovo, Rostov Oblast.

18 Iskander-Ms and 8 Zircons impacted at least 5 different defence-related enterprises in Kyiv, while 2 Zircons struck an unknown target in Poltava Oblast.

None of the missiles were shot down. Only a single Patriot interceptor was launched from Kyiv, failing to shoot any missiles down.

A large fire has broken out in the Vyshneve District of Kyiv following multiple Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strikes.

The civilian death toll from the Russian missile strikes on Kyiv has risen to 4, with another 15 injured.

Suriyak confirms my earlier reports about Lyman being mostly cleared by Ukrainian forces. Russian forces continue to infiltrate parts of the city, however.

I also want to be honest about my monetisation on Twitter.

This is what 80 million views with an above-average engagement rate got me:

Anyway, I've been up for over 26 hours, so I need to get some rest badly. Tomorrow I will post the consequences of tonight's attack on Kyiv.

I've read and written the phrase "Strait of Hormuz" so much over the last 6 months that my brain has started automatically typing words like "straightforward" as "Straitforward". I'm not even joking.
