Ukraine launches missile blitz with two strikes in one night blasting Russian-held airport in Luhansk sparking inferno

UKRAINE targeted Russian military strongholds in occupied city Luhansk overnight, sparking huge fires.

Long-range missiles caused blazing infernos at an Aviation school used by tyrant Vladimir Putin‘s forces and an aircraft repair base.

Kyiv hit two targets in the occupied city – both used by Putin’s army

Dramatic footage showed the city’s outskirts burning after reported long range ATACMS missiles were fired by Kyiv.

Russian sources said the smell of burning was “unbearable” even kilometres away from the blaze at a Russian-held airport.

They claimed Ukraine used cluster warheads in the substantial attack on Vlad’s stolen land.

Impressively it was the third major attack on Luhansk by Zelensky’s forces this month alone.

Putin’s crony in the region, Leonid Pasechnik, was forced to admit: “A fire has broken out as a result of the attack.”

The precise targets appeared to be the pre-war Higher Aviation Navigators School and the Luhansk Aircraft Repair Plant. 

The formidable ballistic ATACMS missiles used by Ukraine can reach distances of up to 300 km.

Ukraine also renewed strikes over Moscow last night with drones scanning above the city.

It came after the country’s most impressive drone strike in more than two years of war yesterday.

Kyiv managed to launch a kamikaze drone more than 1,120 miles inside Russia – buzzing Vladimir Putin’s cliff-top £1 billion Black Sea palace.

The incredible feat caused explosions in two nearby villages, just seven and four miles from the heavily guarded palace.

It showed an impressive new milestone by Ukraine – marking the furthest an unmanned attack aircraft has been flown during the war.

The result also showed a serious weakness in Russia’s air defences – in a humiliating result for the tyrant.

Ukraine was also aiming for key Russian military targets in the hit – including a nuclear early warning radar station in Orsk, Orenburg.

Kyiv believes the radar stations are used for military purposes against Ukraine.
