Reminder:

Russia has allocated around 25-35 Iskander-M ballistic missiles, 8-12 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles, and an unknown number of Kn-23 ballistic missiles at their launch sites in Bryansk, Kursk, Voronezh, and Rostov Oblasts for this next attack.

Presumably all will target Kyiv City and Kyiv Oblast, although other regions being targeted is not ruled out.

NASA FIRMS data shows large fires burning at at least 4 different logistics warehouses southwest of Kyiv following two days of Russian Geran-4 jet-drone strikes.

@Exilenova_plus released high-resolution satellite imagery of the Tu-95MS strategic bomber struck by a Ukrainian drone last night.

The aircraft was seen sitting on the same runway, likely either returning from or going to a training mission. It was situated around 80 metres from where I geolocated it on Sentinel-2 imagery dated August 26 (2 days prior).

As I mentioned in my previous post, this Tu-95MS is not currently used by Russia for launching Kh-101 cruise missiles at Ukraine, and instead is a trainer aircraft for young crews. It's likely that it replaced the previous trainer Tu-95MS which received critical damage from the Ukrainian drone strike on July 16. However, this time, the aircraft received only light damage to one wing, and will presumably be repaired to return to service.

Coordinates from Exilenova imagery: 51.473589, 46.202989

The period of an increased ballistic threat to Kyiv City and Kyiv Oblast starts now, and will continue for another 4 hours.

Ukrainian airstrikes continue to pound Russian troop accumulations in Kostyantynivka that Deepstate continues to claim are "grey-zones".

This strike was carried out by a Su-27 on the western part of the city.
