Ex-Wagner Fighter Posts Footage of Missile Hitting Ukraine Government Building

Video footage of the strike on Ukraine’s government building has been published by a former Wagner operative blogging under the pseudonym Condottiero on Telegram.

“It is clearly visible how an object hits the building, causing a small explosion, followed immediately by a cruise missile passing through the center. This is the salvo fired from a Patriot system along the Dnipro embankment near the Cabinet of Ministers,” the post reads.

Following the strike on the Ukrainian government building, increasing evidence suggests either a hit by a Ukrainian surface-to-air missile or a staged event. The demonstration had been meticulously prepared, and the so-called “unexploded warhead” was never shown, as it would have had to be destroyed immediately—unlike the remains of the building and the missile engine, which remained remarkably intact despite the hours-long fire that followed.

Remarkably, even the safes inside survived the blaze in good condition. It has also been confirmed that there were four Kalibr-K missiles, all striking the Svyatoshino area. A fifth missile never existed.

Earlier, Andrey Yermak, head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, confirmed that Russian forces struck the Cabinet of Ministers overnight on September 7 using an operational-tactical missile system Iskander. Yermak urged Washington to increase sanctions pressure on Russia in response.

Former presidential adviser Alexey Arestovich (listed by Rosfinmonitoring as a terrorist and extremist) emphasized that if the Iskander missile had hit the government building directly, the destruction would have been far more significant than the damage visible in the published footage.
