Monitoring Telegram channel Monitor has published a diagram of the approximate route of Kalibrs, based on numerous reports from open sources.
According to the scheme, the missiles "entered" from the Kherson Region and moved in a northern direction.
In the area of Kropyvnytskyi, they split: two continued north toward the Kyiv Region, and one turned west.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, as of June 21, four Kalibr missile carriers were in the Black and Azov Seas.
Recall that the Armed Forces of Ukraine previously explained why the russians began to rarely use Kalibr missiles for strikes against Ukraine.
We also reported that the occupiers stopped using Kalibr missiles as independent weapons.
