Russia Bombs Itself?

In Belgorod, a video captured from the perspective of a car driving near the Univermag Shopping Mall, heading south and precisely geolocated at 50.600833, 36.589903, shows a shocking moment where a projectile, possibly a rocket, strikes Ulitsa Popova Street. The debris from this strike is seen skidding across the road from the east side to the west. Given the direction of the debris movement, if the projectile was indeed traveling east to west, it suggests that it originated from Russia itself.

This incident was captured in a video, where the exact moment of impact is noted at 00:40 and 3 frames. In the following frame, the debris can be observed skidding across the road, traveling from the east to the west. This observation, combined with the Google Street View analysis and the dashcam perspective at precisely 3.75 seconds into the video, supports the conclusion of the projectile's trajectory.

It's crucial to understand that this incident is not isolated but represents one among several strikes happening in the area. The implication of a projectile striking from a direction that suggests it originated from within Russia adds a layer of complexity and raises questions about the circumstances surrounding the incident.
