Given the proximity to the city of Lower Tagil (only 25 km), the launch should leave numerous testimony - video, photos, eyewitness. However, there was no confirmation of the rocket flight in the information space. According to military reviewers, the peculiarity of such launches is also the possibility of visual observation of the rocket flight in the large part of the territory of the Russian Federation, in particular in the regions of Siberia and the Far East.
However, there is no frame on the network or a mention of nuclear demonstration. The reasons for canceling or disrupting run are unknown. There may be an emergency situation at the starting stage. The history of previous failures also adds arguments: in 2023, Russia could not successfully launch Yars - rockets went off the course. Probably, the Kremlin did not risk launching on the eve of important foreign policy contacts - in particular, the negotiations of Putin and Trump.
Also, the publication did not rule out the emergency situation in the first stage of the flight immediately after the start. We will remind, on May 18 the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine warned that the Russian army on the night of May 19 intended to launch an intercontinental ballistic missile PC-24 from the Yars complex. The launch was to be educational.
