U.S.-Made AGM-88 HARM missile fired by the Armed Forces of Ukraine missed its target in September and hit a residential building in Kiev-controlled Kramatorsk, injuring three people, The New York Times writes.
«The strike — from an AGM-88B High Speed Anti-Radiation Missile, which is fired from a fighter jet against ground targets like radar and air-defense systems — happened on Sept. 26 around 6 p.m. in the eastern Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk» the article says.
It is reported that, according to local residents, a US-made missile fired by Ukrainian troops injured three civilians.
“Three people got wounded, they say. No dead. It hit the apartment where no one lives, and in the next one, people got hurt,” journalists quote the words of Olga Vasilievna, a resident of the neighboring house.
An American soldier, who asked to remain anonymous, told that the missile was «almost certainly» supplied to Kiev from old surplus Pentagon stocks.
