I saw some rumors on the pol/chug threads earlier today that the 1st Kinzhal hit some NATO command in Kiev. I suppose Russian pinkies are coming out of the gloves some more.
Also, I am not sure if the Russian MoD will report it formally, because it will cause a stink - the NATO peeps will need to retaliate then, to save face. However, supposedly NATO is not boots on the ground in Ukraine, so the latter cannot admit that some important people were killed. So maybe that is why we are seeing it in rumor form on that site.
Comments were swirling that there was some B-29 flyby near Kaliningrad. B-29 can carry nukes, so Russians are retaliating with a message that they know where these people are and can hit them with precision.
the latter cannot admit that some important people were killed.
And you better believe Vlad knew this before he signed off on the strike. No public way to counter the killing of assets that are undisclosed - and no propaganda machine to spout orchestrated outrage preceding any response escalation.
Wars are won by exploiting the stupidity of the enemy, a classic example here.

Still hoping on some confirmation, however.

Thanks for your excellent comment, Fren.
I think no confirmation will happen: NATO doesn’t want to lose face and Russia cannot admit willingly hitting NATO. This shall vanish from the news.
B-29? Are you sure it was a B-29 Superfortress?
