The Armed Forces could not purposefully attack the beach in Crimea by the ATCMS rocket: Bild named the reason

If Kiev intentionally hit the ATACMS beach, there would be much more victims, Julian Repke says. The rocket was aimed at a military facility, but it was shot down by Russian air defense just above the place of mass gathering of people. On Sunday, June 23, the Crimea was occupied by the Russians on June 23, allegedly attacked by ATACMS ballistic missiles. Initially, Moscow stated that she knocked down the American rocket, but then accused Kiev of a deliberate attack.

About it writes the expert of the German edition of Bild on the analysis of open data Julian Repke, who makes arguments against the version of the Russian Federation. The journalist notes that the beach is located 4 km south of the military aerodrome and 3 km north of the Navy base.

Before that, Julian Repke said, Ukraine openly stated that the objects of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Crimea would become the purposes of attacks, and warned of the danger of trips to the peninsula. He emphasized that fragments of missiles "Thor" were found on the beach, which testifies to the work of Russian air defense. The footage from the scene shows that most fragments fall into the sea across the beach, not along.

This means that atacms flew to another goal but was shot down. In addition, only a small part of the fragments fell on the beach. Every ATACMS, adds a German journalist, contains 950 small fragmentation of M74, which crashed on all sides when the rocket was knocked down. During the attacks and four people, more than 150 were injured. But if the Armed Forces of Ukraine deliberately attacked vacationers on the beach, then the consequences would be far greater, the analyst emphasized.
