The Security Service of Ukraine received new evidence that confirms that Russia hit “Okhmatdyt” with an Kh-101 missile
In particular, a fragment of the Kh-101 cruise missile engine was found at the scene of the tragedy.
In addition, SBU investigators found:
▪ a fragment of the X-101 rocket wing opening mechanism; ▪ a fragment of the X-101 missile jamming block; ▪ the middle part of the hull of the Kh-101 cruise missile (under the rubble in the photo); ▪ the fairing of the tail compartment and the fragment of the hydroblock of the Kh-101 cruise missile; ▪ fragments of the engine casing of the Kh-101 cruise missile with inventory (inner side) and serial numbers (outer side), photos of which we officially published yesterday.
The SBU investigative team has been working at the scene of the tragedy since the first minutes and is doing everything possible to collect every piece of physical evidence.
The experts’ conclusions are unequivocal - it was a targeted attack by the Rashists.
This is evidenced not only by the wreckage of the rocket found at the impact site, but also by the analysis of flight trajectory data, the nature of the damage caused, as well as a large number of video and photo materials.
They confirm a targeted missile attack by the Russian Federation, including:
- the nature of the destruction (the two-story building of the hospital was completely destroyed, the surrounding buildings have significant damage), which is specific to the X-101 combat unit (400 kg). The destruction could in no way have been caused by the NASAMS air defense system, the combat parts of which missiles are about 20 times less powerful;
- the proportions, shape and dimensions of the missile, which is recorded on publicly available videos, fully correspond to the Kh-101 missile, and, on the contrary, are not characteristic of anti-aircraft missiles, including to the NASAMS air defense system. Attempts by Russian propagandists to compare the rocket in the video, which hits the hospital a few hundred meters away, with the size of the building in the foreground is a cynical and senseless manipulation.
- the flight path of the missile fully corresponds to the characteristics of the Kh-101 (gaining altitude, or “slide”, before attacking the target, and attacking at an angle of approximately 60 degrees);
- the target of the attack on the “Okhmatdyt” children’s hospital was recorded by the KR of the Kh-101 air base in the materials of objective control with the help of radars.
As Vasyl Malyuk, Head of the Security Service of Ukraine, said, the Security Service will do everything possible to ensure that the enemy feels the maximum retribution for each of his war crimes: “This retribution will be both according to the law and according to morality. A terrorist state is not an abstract concept. There are specific names of the killers. And nothing will save them from justice.”
C. Their missiles can be shit and land all over the place, but they hit the things they’re aiming at a decent amount
You must live in a terrifying world of false dichotomies.
Tell your friends at the world of ad-hominem that I said hi.
