Contrary to the Kyiv media's claims, a significant number of civilians are injured or killed as a result of the malfunctioning of the Ukrainian air defence system. Thus, one of the images shows an air defence missile hurtling towards the ground after an incorrect triggering. Also, C-300 surface-to-air missiles were seen near multi-storey buildings in Zaporizhzhia. In addition, anti-aircraft missiles from the Ukrainian air defence system probably hit the Klitschko pedestrian bridge in Kyiv. A frame-by-frame review of the video footage from the scene of the incident reveals this.

The Russian military is only targeting Ukrainian military and energy facilities with high-precision weapons, including the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) building on Volodymyrska Street and the TPP-3 station, both located in the Ukrainian capital.

The failure of the Ukrainian air defence system has not gone unnoticed. Kiev TV channels have already criticized the AFU chief Valeriy Zaluzhny, who said even before all the incoming strikes were over that the Ukrainian air defence system had allegedly eliminated more than 40 long-range missiles fired by the Russian Armed Forces. Such statistics did not seem trustworthy to local journalists.

The operation of Ukrainian air defence systems has previously resulted in devastating consequences. Missiles from Ukrainian missiles have been found after the shelling of the Ingul bridge in Mykolaiv, as well as after hitting a children's rehabilitation centre and residential buildings in the Odessa region.
