Ukraine could hit Storm Shadow on Putin's facility
As the publication notes, if Ukraine really used Storm Shadow on the territory of Russia, it hit more than just an object. After all, in the Kursk region there may be an object with the command of a group of the Russian army together with North Korean generals.
In particular, a video from the settlement of Maryine appeared on the network. A series of sounds similar to explosions can be heard on it.
It is interesting that the video was shot not far from the historic building of the Baryatynski estate. Currently, this facility is a sanatorium, which is subordinate to the Office of the President of the Russian Federation.

According to unconfirmed information, the object that is affected is in the eastern part of the sanatorium, and there is information that there is a military object of the "communication node" type.
Defense Express notes that it may not be an ordinary communications facility, but a deep-seated command post. Taking into account all the details, it is likely that it was used by the command of a group of Russian troops in the Kursk region. In addition to them, North Korean generals could also be there.
According to Defense Express, the command's presence in this location could have made it a Storm Shadow target. After all, they are designed to hit targets of this category, because their 450-kg warhead was specially created to hit protected objects.
