Disappeared

Departure of a MiG-31K from Savasleika Airbase in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. Sirens in all regions of Ukraine.

2 MiGs airborne. The flight characteristics suggest that Kinzhal launches will occur.

Launch maneuver

2 Kinzhals to Chernihiv

Flying further to Kyiv

Passed over Kyiv Oblast to Zhytomyr

Further to Dubno, Rivne Oblast

Approaching Dubno Airbase

There is a delay on information

They flew to Lviv Oblast

Explosions in Dubno. They didn’t fly to Lviv.

I will update the strike map and statistics with the new strikes later. I need to sleep for a bit.

The two MiG-31Ks are still airborne and show no signs of making a return flight back to Savasleika Airbase yet. It’s possible they are redeploying to Akhtubinsk Airbase in Astrakhan Oblast, however this seems unlikely.

During today’s attacks, Dubno Airbase in Rivne Oblast has been hit with 5 Kinzhal hypersonic ballistic missiles, 3 Kh-101 cruise missiles and over a dozen Geran-2 drones.

Whatever the Russians were targeting no longer exists.

I’m interested to see what the Ukrainian Air Force interception claim is.

The 2 MiG-31Ks have begun returning to Savasleika Airbase in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast after completing their combat sorties.

By the way - I forgot to mention this earlier, I have enabled an aggressive spam bot to get rid of bots in the comments, which were becoming a big issue.

If you have for some reason been automatically banned by that bot, reach out to me in the channel DMs (by clicking the message icon at the bottom of your screen) and I can sort it out.

The Ukrainian general staff claimed that last night, Ukrainian special forces damaged a Russian Su-30/35 and a MiG-31K at Savasleika Airbase in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast.

They did not state how there aircraft were attacked, and the attacks themselves remain unconfirmed as of the time of writing.

There were alerts for UAVs and jet drones in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast last night, which is the most likely scenario for an attack.

Russian Tu-22M3s are back over the Sea of Azov, flying to their launch lines in the Sevastopol area.
