In the Russian city of Samara, missile strikes occurred overnight into Saturday, August 15. UNN reports this, citing local public channels.
Details
It is reported that Russia’s aerospace industry may have been hit — most likely the Central Specialized Design Bureau Progress.
The possible missile strike was indirectly hinted at by Fire Point co-owner Denys Shtilerman — he posted a photo and video of a missile launch on X. It is not yet known whether it was the Flamingo.
It is indicated that the main strike likely hit TsSKB-Progress; however, AviaСor, which is engaged in the repair and modernization of aircraft, is located nearby — the explosion may also have affected the territory of this enterprise.
For reference
The State Research and Production Space Rocket Center TsSKB-Progress is one of Russia’s leading enterprises involved in the development, production, and operation of medium-class launch vehicles. The enterprise also manufactures automated spacecraft for remote sensing of the Earth.
To remind you
The Kuibyshev Oil Refinery in Russia’s Samara region halted oil refining after the June 10 attack.
