At the same time, Razvozhayev said that the Russian occupation forces "repelled a massive attack on Sevastopol". According to him, there is no information about the victims.
A representative of the invaders said that a part of a downed missile allegedly fell in the area of Khrustaleva Street. Debris also fell in the area of Ostryakov Street, where, according to the "governor," parts of the downed UAV are burning.
Debris from "downed air targets" also fell in the area of Symonka Street and Uchkuyivka.
Meanwhile, OSINT researchers, having analyzed the NASA fire map, suggested that Ukrainian missiles could have hit one of the occupiers' S-400 positions.
"Last night, judging by the NASA fire map, Mr. Himars hit a long-known S-400 air defense position near Sevastopol. And perhaps not only S-400, we will find out later," reads the message on the Telegram channel "Dnipro | OSINT with Harbuz".
