Chart breaking down the Oreshnik hypersonic missile system used in the January 2026 Lviv strike
Key Intelligence Note While Russian milbloggers claimed the strike targeted the Stryi underground gas storage, geolocated footage confirms the impact was at the Aircraft Repair Plant. This indicates a shift from striking "civilian heat" to striking "long-term defense sustainability" just as the Paris Declaration was signed on January 10, 2026.
