The troops of the Russian Federation have stockpiled Zircon missiles in the occupied Crimea for further targeted attacks on Ukraine, in particular on Kyiv.

Humeniuk noted that due to the possibility of using long-range missiles, such as Zircon, the air alert in the event of a ballistic missile attack from the south will be extended to the northern regions as well.

She added that Russia already has several dozen Zircon missiles in Crimea.

At the same time, Air Force press officer Illia Yevlash said to Radio Free Europe that Ukrainian experts continue the investigation of the fragments of the missiles that hit Kyiv on March 25.

He also said that the use of Zircon anti-ship missiles might be the evidence that Russian troops now lack other types of missiles.
