Its how media works. Funny how similar the article is to a July article from the Kiev post. Some one drops an article someone else picks it up then another and suddenly its news but not real proof that it actually happened, exactly how dis/mis information gets spread.

From link above- Russian strike planners on Friday launched a focused but, according to Kyiv statements, unsuccessful attack against the Khmelnytsky region air base in Starokostyantyniv. The Ukrainian airfield is considered to be the best prepared to handle soon-to-arrive American
F-16 fighter jets.
Kremlin Tu-95 “Bear” bombers reportedly launched five Kh-101 cruise missiles – the same weapon responsible for a bloody attack on a Kyiv children’s hospital on Monday – at the
Ukrainian Air Force’s main bomber base shortly before midnight Thursday-Friday.
All the missiles had been shot down by early Friday morning, along with 19 Shahed kamikaze drones launched from Russia’s Kursk Oblast to accompany the cruise missiles and intended to distract air defenses, a Ukrainian Air Force statement said.
