The group of Tu-95s from Engels landed back at Engels a while ago. The group from Olenya has begun making the return flight north.

Very unusual flight patterns

Kyiv is getting hit hard by Geran-2 drones. More explosions were just heard.

~70 Gerans in Ukrainian airspace right now

A lot of Gerans have flown and are flying to Starokostyantyniv, specifically the large airbase there. Perhaps a prelude to the missiles?

As for the bombers, the activity on the strategic frequencies has been ongoing for over 36 hours straight, some channels periodically, others non-stop. One of the combat frequencies - the one with the masker turned on which I talked about yesterday - seems to have been switched from a frequency for the Tu-22M3 bombers to the Tu-95MS bombers.

Note: this is a different frequency to the one which was activated prior to the single strike carried out by a Tu-22M3 last night.

Correction: One Tu-95 from Engels-2 Airbase is still airborne. Currently there are two in the area of Volgograd city and 2 in the area of Nizhny Novgorod, flying northwest back to Olenya Airbase.

1 Tu-95MS departed from Engels-2 Airbase in Saratov Oblast. Possibly training, but let's see.

This is from part of a separate group which conducted a launch maneuver from over Probuzhdenie, Saratov Oblast around 25 minutes ago. Interestingly, Probuzhdenie is around 20km from the usual launch lines.

The launch maneuvers from Penza were probably simulated. Waiting on any potential missiles from Saratov Oblast.

Unidentified missile in the direction of Okhtyrka, Sumy Oblast.

Further to Poltava Oblast

More are following. These seem to be from Penza after all

Kh-101 group 1 flies southwest to Myrhorod, Poltava Oblast.

These are all part of the same group of Kh-101s. 3 in total.

Starokostyantyniv is still under a non-stop massive Geran attack.

Kh-101 group 1 will bypass Myrhorod from the southeast.

Kh-101 group 2 enters Sumy Oblast

Kh-101 group 1 flies southwest to Kirovohrad-Cherkasy border.

Group 2 flies over Okhtyrka, Sumy Oblast.

Group 2 enters Poltava Oblast. Same course as group 1.
