ATACMS missiles hit Russian training ground 80km from the frontline in Luhansk

Ukraine has used America-supplied ATACMS cluster munitions to hit a Russian training ground. Drone footage shows four missiles hitting in rapid succession near the town of Mozhnyakivka. The first missile appears to be a dud and lands with a plume of smoke, but the other three scatter bomblets over a wide area which then explode in rapid succession. Based upon the footage, analysts believe casualties among Russian troops on the base are likely to be high. The video emerged just days after America acknowledged sending long-range ATACMS to Ukraine, which Kyiv said it had already used to carry out two strikes in secret. This is the first time an ATACMS strike has been confirmed since an initial batch of the weapons was sent last year. Ukraine used those missiles to attack Russian airbases, but quickly exhausted its supply. The US has recently passed a $60bn aid package for Ukraine, which is thought to contain more than 100 of the missiles. #russia #ukraine #atacms

  1. The first burst of smoke isn't a dud; it's the body of the missile impacting after dispensing the submunitions.

  2. How do you assure me that they were Russian soldiers and not a failed attack or that the victims are not civilians because the Ukrainians have the habit of attacking their own people even with the powerful patriotic missile?🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

  3. Nothing 'offensive'….this is what russians want, this why russians go to Ukraine, they know they are participating in a war, they know they are assisting Putin to steal Ukrainian land, they have agreed to kill Ukrainians, so this is what they expect!

  4. Ninguém acredita nessas montagens. Os mísseis ucraniano foram interceptados com sucesso pelos misseis S400. Os demais objetos não tripulados também foram abatidos. Esses misseis se tornaram obsoletos.

  5. This is terrible where is the humanity. An eye for an eye makes everyone blind,Don't do unto others what you don't want done unto you this is a failure of humankind no to war!!! сла́ва Росси́и
