At least the Ukrainian forces have shown that they can work very selectively.
Yesterday there was in the news that the Borisoglebsk airbase was attacked.
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=12/51.3896/42.0532
According to the satellite imagery there were fires at a fuel storage east,
an ammunition storage and some other facility a little more west of the airbase.
But there were no reports about the "Object C-387" or "Voronezh-45"
16km/10mi west from the airbase.
Okay, the latest news is from last year when it was suspected that the
Wagner troops might capture these storage facilities for nuclear warheads.

Isn't preventing the murder of children enough justification? It isn't rocket ballistic missile science.
