According to my information, during yesterday's massive combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine, Russia struck a warehouse being used to store Patriot PAC-2/3 interceptors and other ammunition with Kh-101 cruise missiles.

During the attack, approximately 14 Russian Kh-101 cruise missiles disappeared from radars all at once in Chernihiv Oblast. It turns out, they likely struck a warehouse complex in the village of Ladynka, Chernihiv Oblast, which was apparently being used by Ukraine to store ammunition and Patriot PAC-2/3 interceptor missiles. The highlighted building was apparently the one containing Patriot missiles.

Additionally, it's possible that several Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles launched from Kursk Oblast were used to strike this facility. This would explain why the Ukrainian Air Force claimed that only 8 Zircons were launched, instead of my earlier estimations of 14 missiles.

Recently, Ukraine received multiple new batches of Patriot PAC-2/3 interceptors, which I reported on when Ukraine transported them using three An-72 military cargo aircraft to western Ukraine. It's possible that these missiles were then transferred from western Ukraine to this village, spotted by Russia being moved, and subsequently struck a couple of days later, however this is just speculation right now.

We should get Sentinel-2 satellite imagery of this are tomorrow, so assuming there are no clouds, I should be able to confirm if this was indeed the place which was hit or not.
