How did you hit the military unit in the Crimea? Two main versions of what and how partially destroyed the Russian Air Base in Novofedorovka

The pillars of smoke from them were visible both on sushi and in the sea. Later, the so -called "Chairman of the Crimea" Sergey Aksyonov confirmed the information that the explosions occurred at Saky's military facility. He did not name the specific information about what caused them. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, of course, stated that "everything goes according to plan": they say, "detonation of several aviation ammunition" occurred at 15:20 at the Saki airfield.

No one was allegedly injured, as aircraft was not injured. At the same time, the Crimean "authorities" immediately spoke about five victims, and later the media of the aggressor country stated that one person had died, and nine more were injured. Preparing the ground for future accusations against Ukraine, the Russian Federation began to tell that all were wounded exclusively civilians.

In its Telegram channel, the Ukrainian Investigation Program reminded that Saki aerodrome is one of the key to the Russian aviation on the occupied peninsula. There was a 43rd fighter airfield of the Russian Air Force, which includes mainly planes Su-30cm, Su-33 and Su-24M bombers. The aggressor country uses bombing airfield and Ukrainian cities.

The Planet Labs satellite images made about four hours before the Novofedorivka series, a large number of Russian military aviation and warehouses are visible. After a series of explosions, the Russians declared evacuation from homes located near the military base. And Aksyonov declared a "yellow level of terrorist danger" until August 24.

The experts also said that explosions at a military facility, located more than 200 km from the immediate positions of the Armed Forces, were the result of a rocket attack. Prior to that, the Ukrainian forces have never struck the occupied peninsula. And if the Armed Forces missiles really flew there, this case will be the first example of an attack on the enemy's objects in the Crimea, which is considered not by some "republics" in Moscow, but by "their own", Russian lands.

The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine ironically commented the explosions at the object near Novofedorivka. They noted that they could not determine the cause of the fire in the airfield, but were reminded of "fire safety rules and smoking prohibition in unauthorized places. " Yuri Ignat, a spokesman for the Armed Forces Command, did not answer the NB whether the Ukrainian forces attacked the Crimean Air Base of the enemy.

Subsequently, Mikhail Podolyak, Advisor to the Presidential Office on the TV channel, said the Rain that the Armed Forces was not related to the explosions at the airfield. As it was the American The New York Times, citing an unnamed influential Ukrainian military official with knowledge of the situation that the Ukrainian forces had been struck by the Saky Air Force. "It was an air base, with which planes regularly flew to our troops on the Southern Front," the NYT source said.

The military official did not begin to open the type of weapon, but specified that it was Ukrainian production. Military expert Viktor Kevlyuk suggests that the strokes could be caused by Ukrainian anti-ship missiles Neptune using GPS coordinates for land. It was probably Neptune who previously destroyed the cruiser of Moscow, the flagship of the Russian Black Sea Fleet.

Mykola Beleskov, the chief consultant of the NCOnstitute of Strategic Studies, the NCOnstitute of the Nazi-Economic Policy, suggests that the Armed Forces could use American anti-radiological missiles AGM-88 Harm, launching them from the MiG-29 or Su-27 fighters. The planes, however, should be modified for the use of such weapons. However, directly on the base of the Armed Forces not AGM-88 Harm, explains Kevluk: they were only "pierced" by Ukrainian forces in the air defense of the object.

"And in this window, they clicked two long -range American rockets atasms," the expert says. The main set for starting atasms, whose flight range is up to 300 km, is already well -known Himars volley fire systems. However, the Americans have officially stated that they supply Ukraine with a much smaller radius for these missile installations.

However, ex-adviser to the Ministry of Internal Affairs Viktor Andrusov wrote that ammunition with a range of 200-300 km in service with the Armed Forces already. Sergey Zgurets, director of the Information and Consulting Company, Defense Express, also lends to the version that atasms have worked on the Saky airfield. Although there are no missile spans during the explosions during the explosions, it is only a version.

ATCMS is a ballistic rocket that flies into the object almost vertically and develops high speed. Therefore, it is difficult to see it at the usual speed of video playback. "When the Russians hit the Kiev Retrovville in the Kiev Ballistic missile, the shooting also did not reflect the missiles themselves," Zgurets reminds. And here is the option that explosions in Novofedorovka could be the result of an attack of drones or actions of a sabotage group experts deny.

A hole in the sky British expert Timothy Ash wrote in a newsletter for Bloomberg about the attack on Novofedorivka: "It is noteworthy that Russian air defense has failed again. " In his opinion, the Air Base in Sakakh is the same "high -quality" goal as the Cruzer Moscow was sunk before. Due to the fact that several Ukrainian rockets have been targeted, it testifies to the complete failure of the Russian air defense system.

Earlier, the military journalist Yuri Butusov wrote that only on August 5-7, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces, the Ukrainian forces destroyed 14 units of anti-aircraft missile systems and RLS of Russians. In his opinion, this sudden "mor" could be a consequence of a powerful blow caused, probably already mentioned by the anti-radiological missiles AGM-88 Harm. And their supply was not advertised at first.

But just before the blow on Novofedorovka in Pentagon confirmed that they had transferred anti -radial rockets to Ukraine. It is time for the Russians to run, meanwhile, Chubarov, the head of the Majlis of the Crimean Tatar people and the Verkhovna Verkhovna Rada, addressed Russian to the Russians in the Crimea. "As soon as you received the first" call "that indicates you immediately leave the territory of the occupied Crimea. Know your stay in occupied Crimea is illegal and criminal.
