Two Russian Tu-95MS strategic bombers have conducted cruise missile launches, according to an unverified report. If the launches were real and not a simulation, Kh-101 cruise missiles are expected to reach Ukrainian airspace within 90 minutes.
A single-source report states that two Russian Tu-95MS strategic bombers have launched cruise missiles. The message, posted by an intelligence desk feed, notes that if the launches were real — not simulated — Kh-101 cruise missiles will arrive in Ukrainian airspace in approximately 90 minutes from the time of launch. No official confirmation from Ukrainian or Russian military sources is available as of 01:33 Jerusalem, and no reports of impacts or air defense activity have yet surfaced. The report follows a week of notable Ukraine-Russia aerial activity: as The Zioneer previously reported, Ukraine launched dozens of Flamingo missiles at Moscow on June 10, and Ukraine also conducted a large drone attack on Crimea infrastructure overnight on June 13. Russia claimed to have intercepted 500 Ukrainian drones on June 7. The current report remains unverified and lacks details on launch location, intended targets, or whether the bombers have returned to base.
