The enemy would not give the Starokostiantyniv airfield a break.

There was a series of explosions in Starokostiantyniv and Khmelnytskyi hromadas.

Most of the missiles were shot down by air defence forces.

At the same time, the blast wave damaged the roof, doors and windows of several private residential buildings in the Starokostiantyniv hromada, and smashed windows in one of the municipal cultural institutions, at the bus station and in commercial premises."
