Update from The Russian Ministry of Defense: [ANNA news, Machine-Translated]

Yesterday a successful landing was carried out in the area of ​​​​the Gostomel airfield in the suburbs of Kiev.

More than 200 Russian helicopters were involved in the operation. The success of the landing was ensured by the suppression of the entire air defense system in the landing area, the complete isolation of the combat area from the air and the active conduct of electronic warfare.

During the capture of the airfield, more than 200 nationalists from the special units of Ukraine were killed. There are no losses in the Russian armed forces.

The main forces of the airborne troops connected with the units of the Russian landing on Gostomel, blocking Kiev from the west.

Reconnaissance data show that Grad MLRS installations have been deployed on Shevchenko Square in Kiev to strike at the area of ​​the Gostomel airfield.

According to the ministry, Pentagon and CIA advisers taught the Ukrainian military leadership how to place rocket-propelled artillery systems in residential areas to provoke return fire on local residents.

"The use by the Kiev regime of residential areas to cover the firing positions of its artillery is a war crime. This handwriting is familiar to us. These methods are actively used by terrorists supervised by the CIA in the Middle East and other countries"

"Your nationalist leadership uses the same methods as the terrorists. They want to use you as a human shield. The Russian armed forces will not inflict any strikes on residential areas of the Ukrainian capital"
