CNN showed exclusive footage of destruction of wagons with Iranian missiles in the Russian Federation (video)
CNN did not reveal the location of the visited objects for reasons of operational safety, but noted that one of the Ukrainian fighters who accompanied them told reporters that he personally controlled more than 500 beats of drones of a long -range radius on the territory of Russia since its full -scale invasion of Ukraine.
"According to the Ukrainians, their goal is the composition of ammunition, namely the train wagons loaded with the recently delivered Iranian missiles standing in the depot," the material reads. In September, the sources reported CNN that Tehran had recently completed the supply of small range ballistic missiles to Russia. Iran categorically denies that he has supplied any missiles.
"The object is located on the outskirts of the tiny village of Kotluban in the Volgograd region in the southwest of Russia," CNN noted. The journalists explained that GUR was shared with CNN video from the area where the warehouse is located. CNN was able to view and check the aspects of video without blur to check its authenticity.
The source in the defense intelligence reported CNN that their knowledge of the location of the camera in combination with its remoteness from the bolluban allowed them to establish that the explosions inside the warehouse were powerful. The accelerated video shows 11 explosions that occurred within 56 minutes between 2:22 and 3:18 nights - at a time when landing drones that came from Ukraine were expected.
CNN was able to confirm independently through its sources that had a direct hit in the object. The picture shows a number of items scattered around the building, as well as a badly damaged building. The later satellite image of Maxar Technologies, also obtained CNN, shows fewer debris nearby - evidence that the Russian military cleared the place - but the same building, but badly damaged.
