Russians again drop aerial bomb on Belgorod Oblast – media

This Monday, September 23, another dropped FAB-250 was found in the Grayvoron city district of the Belgorod Oblast of the russian federation.

The ASTRA Telegram channel reported this with reference to sources.

So, it is indicated that the aerial bomb was discovered kilometers from the village of Dobroivanivka. It is claimed that there are no casualties or damage, and the ammunition itself has already been destroyed.

According to ASTRA's calculations, these are at least 127 aerial bombs that fell on russia and the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine from March to September of this year.

The publication reminded that in order to counter the Ukrainian air defense, the russian army began to equip Soviet FAB aerial bombs with UMPK complexes (universal planning and adjustment modules). After such an update, wings and satellite guidance appear on the FABs, which make it possible to launch bombs directly from the territory of the russian federation.

Previously, confirmations of the use of the winged FAB-3000 in Ukraine were published. The numbers in the name of such bombs indicate the total weight of the product.

"The Russian army began to actively use the UMPK in the spring of this year. And the problem of the updated FAB was immediately revealed - often the bombs simply do not reach Ukraine. According to ASTRA's calculations, in total, from March to September, Russian planes dropped at least 127 aerial bombs on Russia and the occupied territories of Ukraine," the message says.

It is noted that FAB-250 and FAB-500 fall most often. Usually, they do not explode during an accidental drop – the bombs are destroyed by explosives after falling.

In addition, the publication drew attention to the fact that at the beginning of July, a FAB-3000 fell for the first time from a russian plane in the Belgorod Oblast - the bomb exploded in a field near Shebekino, no one was killed nor injured. However, on May 4, a russian plane dropped a FAB-500 on Belgorod, as a result of which 7 people were injured, 31 households and 10 cars were damaged. The authorities hid the reason for the bomb's fall, as well as the fact that it was russian.

We will remind, as of June, ASTRA stated that in four months, russian planes accidentally bombed the Belgorod Oblast of the russian federation and the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine at least 93 times.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, in July, The Washington Post cited an internal russian document, which stated that during the year at least 38 russian aerial bombs fell on the territory of the aggressor state of russia - in the Belgorod Oblast. At the same time, the authorities hide these facts, blaming the Defense Forces of Ukraine or not naming the reasons for the "explosion".
