During the shooting practice, the Russian Su-24 bomber fired a missile at a locality.

The Avia.pro resource got information that during the execution of the training firing in the territory of the Chelyabinsk region, the Russian front bomber Su-24 made an erroneous launch of the rocket in the direction of the populated area. By happy coincidence, the missile deviated from the target did not reach the settlement, as a result of which destruction and casualties were avoided.

Source portal Avia.pro reports that we are talking about the X-25 rocket, which fell outside the target field. The reasons for which the rocket deviated so far from the chosen target so far remains unknown, but experts believe that two versions should be considered - a technical failure and a crew error.

According to updated data, the rocket fired by the Russian front-line bomber fell about two kilometers from the village of Kopytovo, located on the border of the Chelyabinsk and Kurgan regions.

An incident is underway, which almost caused the destruction and death of civilians, is being investigated.
