My thanks to @MT_Anderson for providing this Planet Labs imagery and allowing me to publish it with comments.

As is readily apparent, the RS-28 Sarmat test was a complete failure. The missile detonated in the silo leaving a massive crater and destroying the test site. The Sarmat is a liquid fueled missile so this accident could have occurred separate from the actual launch activity.

If this occurred as part of the fueling process, it could explain the lack of Cobra Ball activity on the day of the incident. This first, and last successful test of the Sarmat was April 20th, 2022.

With these events now official, this is at least the 4th failed test attempt of the "combat operational" Sarmat Heavy ICBM.

Note the 4 fire trucks responding to the forest fire.

A large crater (approximately 62 meters wide) is visible at the launch silo and extensive damage in and around the launch pad can be seen which suggests that the missile exploded shortly after ignition or launch.

Defense forces of Ukraine hit two military arsenals of the armed forces of the Russian Federation

Tonight, the Tikhoretsk arsenal in the Krasnodar Territory was hit by fire. This object is one of the three largest ammunition storage bases of the occupiers and is one of the key ones in the logistics system of the Russian troops. According to available information, at the time of the attack, another echelon was on the territory of the arsenal, which delivered at least 2,000 tons of ammunition, including from the DPRK. The Podlyot radar station, which detected air targets in the direction of the arsenal, was also attacked.

In addition, the SBU struck the 23rd arsenal of the Main Artillery Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation near the settlement of Oktyabrskiy, Tver Region. Fire and detonation are recorded in the areas of both military arsenals.

The tasks were successfully completed in cooperation with the units of the Defense Forces: the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine, and others. Combat work on important military targets of the Russian occupiers continues.

NASA FIRMS data confirming that Russia's Tver region lost a second ammunition depot overnight.

Located only 15km from the previous strike, both are nearly 500km from the Ukrainian border.

As promised 🫡

About the meaning of the names of our division and divisions

It just so happened that artillery is the god of war, so the names of units are mostly referred to the deities who are the patrons of war and military affairs

• Tivaz - in Scandinavian mythology, the god of war and the divine judge. Tivaz, also known as Tur, was the patron saint of warriors and military strategies. His symbols were the hammer known as Mjolnir and the letter Tivaz, which represented his magical power.

• Sekhmet is an ancient Egyptian goddess who symbolized strength, military prowess and medicine. She was depicted in the form of a lioness or a woman with a lion's head, was considered the protector of the pharaoh and the patroness of the art of war.

• Athena - in Greek mythology, the goddess of wisdom, crafts and war. She was considered the protector of Athens, the city named after her. Athena also symbolized strategic thinking and justice.

• Minerva - the Roman goddess of wisdom, crafts and art. She corresponded to the Greek Athena and is the daughter of Jupiter (Zeus). Minerva was considered the patroness of military strategy and wisdom.

"God fights on the side of those who have the best artillery." - Napoleon I Bonaparte.

Well, as for our FPV units of Gotei 13 and Akatsuki drones, everything is more prosaic here. The anime generation has grown up 😅

The Gotei 13 is the foundation of the Soul Society's military power from the Bleach anime. They act as a military organization, the main goals of which include the protection of souls in the world of the living and "empty", conducting military operations in enemy territory and sending the souls of deceased people to the Society of Souls. Die to eradicate evil. This is the spirit of Gotei 13.

"Akatsuki" is an organization that gathered the main antagonists of the manga and anime series "Naruto". It is a constantly traveling organization, and its agents work in all the villages of the world. The main and only goal of "Akatsuki" is to take over the world. Nothing is permanent. Know how to live in the moment. This world is rotten... There is nothing left but suffering... I have no heart... only emptiness. You talk about kindness in my heart, but I don't even have it!

Normally, yes, but Russians run into mine barriers regardless.

Those appear to be high-explosive incendiary rounds

It's the flag of a Russian pro-Ukraine paramilitary group, "Freedom of Russia Legion".

Probably ignited the rocket motor.

Yes, likely a ZALA or SuperCam reconnaissance UAV

I copied the description from the source. I've deleted it to avoid confusion. ВСУ means AFU, Armed Forces of Ukraine. I think PC30 refers to GMLRS.
