Explosion in the area of occupied Yelenovka, Donetsk region. The OSINT researcher DefMon geolocated it as being directly near the railway track. As another researcher Blinzka saw, apparently a Russian anti-aircraft missile exploded during launch (the launcher itself is similar to the S-300 air defense system). One can assume a manufacturing defect, which repeatedly appears in the Russian anti-aircraft forces.

it's hard to keep track sometimes of targets that Ukraine hits, versus when Russia hits itself
