After a long hiatus, Russia has resumed their usage of D-30SN precision-guided glide bombs in Ukraine.

Yesterday afternoon, a strike was carried out on a target just north of Konotop, Sumy Oblast. It was detected late by radars, and was initially mistaken as a Kh-59 cruise missile due to the slow speed and non-ballistic trajectory.

A few hours earlier, a D-30SN strike was carried out on a Ukrainian temporary deployment point in the town of Mykolaivka, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. Locals reported hearing a "whistling sound" before an explosion, which was smaller than any KAB glide-bomb and was only heard by people in Mykolaivka itself.
