Strike on training ground hosting drone operators: Why were lessons of Chernihiv 2023 not learned? // Uncensored. VIDEO
Russian ballistic missiles struck a private training ground in the Kyiv region where an event involving representatives of Ukraine’s defence industry was taking place. People were killed and injured.
But beyond Russia’s obvious culpability, Ukraine must answer other questions: why bring arms manufacturers together within ballistic missile range, how were the risks assessed, was adequate shelter available, and how easily could the enemy identify the event’s location?
Maryna Danyliuk-Yarmolaieva explains why this was not merely a tragic coincidence, but a repeat of the unlearned lessons of Chernihiv in 2023. The video examines the exhibition’s public promotion, warnings from Serhii Flesh, Russia’s OSINT capabilities and the central question: who will be held accountable for decisions that cost Ukrainian lives and weaken the country’s defence capability?
