Claimed to be a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strike on a Ukrainian Patriot Air Defence system position in the area of Pokrov, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

An AN/MPQ-65 multifunctional radar station, combat control cabin and two anti-aircraft missile launchers were reportedly destroyed.

It's unclear when this strike occurred as it doesn't seem to be from the past couple days, plus the footage isn't clear enough to determine whether it was a patriot system that was hit.

An unidentified missile, probably Kh-59/31P, targeted the vicinity of the village of Mykolaivka, Sumy Oblast. An explosion was heard.

Ballistic missile launch from Yemen to central Israel

The launch was detected very late. Interceptor missiles have already gone up and sirens are sounding.

The ballistic missile was intercepted. The explosion heard in the Jerusalem area was from the launch of an interceptor missile.

Correction: The explosion was heard from the interception of the ballistic missile. The interceptor was actually launched from the area of Haifa in northern Israel.
