Types of missiles became known, two nine-story buildings in the city of Ternopil, abandoned by Russian invaders This was reported by the Communications Department of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Telegram.

"Multi-apartment buildings in the city of Ternopil were hit by Russian Kh-101 cruise missiles launched from strategic aviation aircraft: 6 Tu-95MS (based at Olenya airfield), 4 Tu-160MS (based at Engels and Ukrainka airfields)," the report states.

The missiles were launched from aircraft from the Vologda and Astrakhan regions.

In this regard, law enforcement officers are currently studying the wreckage of Russian cruise missiles in order to establish and document another terrorist act by the Russians against the civilian population of Ukraine.

At the same time, according to reliable data that has been provided to partners more than once, the Russian Kh-101 cruise missile contains components and accessories manufactured by companies, in particular, from the USA, China and Taiwan, Germany, the Netherlands and others. The message emphasizes:

"As of 4:00 p.m., debris from one of the cruise missiles that hit the nine-story building on November 19, 2025 has been found and identified. This is a Kh-101 missile manufactured in the fourth quarter of 2025."

The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is convinced that such tragedies as those in Ternopil could have been avoided if Russia had not found an opportunity to circumvent the sanctions already announced against the terrorist state.
