"Russian S-300 missile [SAM] launch goes wrong, and directly hit its own troops"

"The incident was captured on camera by a number of Belgorod locals, according to Ukrainian military sources Videos circulating online show the moment the dramatic failure of a Russian air defense missile launch. The fired missile dropped and exploded because it couldn’t accelerate in time. According to Ukrainian military officials, the Russian army launched six S-300 air defense missiles on Wednesday night in the direction of Kharkiv in northeastern Ukraine. One of the missiles, however, veered off course and struck a neighborhood in the Russian city of Belgorod"

More egg-on-face for the Russian. Belgorod bombarded by a Russian missile aimed at a Ukrainian target. This hardly in the aftermath of what was apparently the recent Ukrainian helicopter raid on the same city does not do a lot of good for the local morale or confidence.
