Footage showing the moment of Ukraine's Flamingo cruise missile strike on the Votkinsk machine and ballistic missile Plant in the city of Votkinsk, Republic of Udmurtia, on February 20, 2026.

The missile targeted production workshop No. 19.

Ukraine’s SBU has detained the commander of the Air Force logistics and the head of its Zhytomyr regional office, Volodymyr Kompanychenko.

According to lawmakers, they are suspected of receiving a $320,000 bribe. Investigators believe the officials may have been involved in the embezzlement of funds allocated for building protective structures at military airfields.

Ukraine's Special Operations Forces published a new video showing recent drone strikes on valuable Russian targets in Crimea.

The following was hit:

- An S-400 surface-to-air missile launcher
- A 92N6E radar station of an S-400 system
- Auxiliary elements of an S-400 system
- A Pantsir-S1 short-range air defence system

A recent post by the Ukrainian Airborne Assault Forces confirms what I have been saying for weeks about this localised Ukrainian counteroffensive:

The goal is to delay Russian plans for their upcoming encircling maneuver against Orikhiv, which by extension protects Zaporizhzhia City for longer. The goal is not an operational breakthrough into the deep rear like I keep seeing many propaganda accounts like David D claim. This is a stabilising measure against a section of the frontline which saw rapid Russian progress, which aims to alleviate the pressure on the key tactical heights which protect Ukraine's left flank to Orikhiv.

Keep in mind, most of the accounts hyping up this counteroffensive and drawing big arrow predictions are the same people who claimed this was a fabricated counteroffensive aimed at quietly covering up supposedly "fake" Russian advances.

3 Russian surface-carriers have been equipped with Kalibr cruise missiles at Novorossiysk Naval Base, Krasnodar Krai, in preparation for the upcoming combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine.

These are:

"Admiral Makarov" Frigate
"Admiral Essen" Frigate
"Buyan-M" Corvette

They can launch a total possible salvo of 24 missiles.

The GUR has issued a warning to some media outlets about the threat of a combined missile attack tonight.

I mentioned earlier that there was a threat for tonight and the next few days, and its possible that strategic aviation is used. If this is the case, the first frequency activities will be detected in the next 3-4 hours.

However, I have my doubts that anything will happen for tonight.

Unidentified missiles flying to Hlukhiv (Sumy Oblast) and Odesa.

Kh-31P to Hlukhiv (launched by a Su-35). It has since disappeared.

The missile flying to Odesa was a misidentification.

Iskander on Odesa

To Mayaky

Explosion in Mayaky

Correction: The impact occurred somewhere near Chornomorsk

The Iskander-M impact was somewhere around here.

It might have targeted a Ukrainian long-range UAV launch/preparation site.

Russia will carry out a large-scale combined missile and drone attack on Ukrainian energy infrastructure tonight.

Communications with Russian strategic command and control in Moscow and activity on combat frequencies have been recorded.

At least 2 Tu-160M strategic bombers 6-8 Tu-95MS are equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles at Olenya and Engels-2 Airbases.

Kalibr cruise missiles, Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Iskander-K cruise missiles and Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles may also be used.

The highest threat is to the western regions of Ukraine, Kyiv Oblast, Kharkiv Oblast, and Dnipropetrovsk Oblast from 12am to 8am Kyiv Time.
