Ukraine might have carried out a Storm Shadow missile strike on a facility associated with the Russian president, featuring an underground command post in the Kursk region.
It is likely that the command of the Russian military group in the Kursk region was present there, along with North Korean generals.
Watching the video, I counted at least eight impacts. The sound of the engines indicated each strike involved a new missile, rather than secondary explosions.
Ukraine likely carried out a Storm Shadow missile strike on a strategic target in Russia's Kursk region. The strike reportedly targeted an underground command post housing Russian military leadership along with North Korean generals. This operation might be part of a broader Ukrainian campaign aimed at dismantling Russian military infrastructure near the border.
Incident Details:
- Number of Strikes: Video analysis revealed at least eight distinct impacts, suggesting the use of multiple Storm Shadow missiles. The sound of the engines indicated fresh launches for each strike, rather than secondary explosions.
- North Korean Presence: Over 10,000 North Korean troops are reportedly operating in the Kursk region on behalf of Russia. Their roles include artillery support, drone operations, and other tactical activities.
- Missile Stockpile: Ukraine received these missiles from the UK and France. While the exact stockpile is undisclosed due to operational security, consistent resupply is likely, with hundreds of missiles reportedly delivered to date.
This strike underscores Ukraine's precision-strike capabilities, weakening Russian command structures and drawing global attention to Moscow's collaboration with Pyongyang, a violation of international sanctions.
Trump has supported Biden’s decision to authorize Ukraine to conduct strikes deeper into Russian territory, according to Boris Pinkus, President of the Republican Club.
“Biden shared his plan and discussed it with Trump, receiving a positive response. Trump's policy is 'peace through strength,’” Pinkus stated.
Meanwhile, Bloomberg, Reuters, and The Telegraph have confirmed that Storm Shadow missiles were used in strikes on Russia.
