Ukrainian ballistic missile “Pelican” (FP-7) was used for the first time, with a range of up to 3000 km..
The impact was only 15 km from the Kremlin — that is exactly the distance at which the Moscow oil refinery is located.
There is a large-scale fire there.

One reason Galtar and the Golden Lance has such a strong sword-and-sorcery look is the comic-book talent behind it. Character design credits include Frank Brunner, celebrated for his wild, atmospheric work on Doctor Strange and Howard the Duck, and Mike Vosburg, a veteran of Savage She-Hulk, Conan, and numerous animation productions. DC artist Ric Estrada also worked on the series as a layout artist and story director.
Beneath the familiar Hanna-Barbera animation is a distinctly comic-book fantasy aesthetic: muscular heroes, elaborate armour, grotesque monsters, and the sort of strange kingdoms that wouldn’t look out of place in a 1970s Marvel sword-and-sorcery book. Hoyt Curtin supplies his classic Hanna-Barbera superhero/fantasy soundtrack.

Everyone who has gone to military school knows that absolutely the best place to put an ammo dump is at a major traffic junction near the heart of your capital city.

This is absolutely gorgeous
Our long-range responses had a very significant impact in the Moscow region last night. One of Russia’s key oil industry facilities and the aggressor’s logistics facility were hit. These are billions of dollars that sustain the war machine. The systems used included FP-1, RZ-100, MICH-2000, Palianytsia, Vendetta, Liutyi, Bars, Flamingo, Sichen, and Pelican.
I thank our warriors for their accuracy: the Security Service of Ukraine together with the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the Foreign Intelligence Service. Sanctions were also imposed on a facility in the Voronezh region. Moscow must end its brutal war and choose peace instead of building layered rings of air defense at the expense of other regions. Steps toward de-escalation are on the table – in energy and food security. What is needed is political will. I thank everyone who is strengthening Ukraine’s long-range capabilities. I am grateful to everyone who complements our long-range responses with responses through sanctions. Glory to Ukraine!

The Statue of Liberty was restored in the 80s, the Washington Monument needed repairs in 2011 after an earthquake, again in 2019 for elevators and security, and the Lincoln Memorial restoration began in 2016
Not a single location was renamed for the administration overseeing it.
