This sounds fishy to me.
Rocket salvos are difficult to "intercept" unless the defensive equipment is pre-placed near the target.
There is absolutely no rationale for UKR to launch this attack.
IMHO, this is a Russian false flag attack (gone bad) to justify more cruise missile attacks on Ukrainian civilian targets.
Before the invasion of Ukraine, Putin was demanding NATO withdrawal from eastern Europe, including Poland.

Pay wall
Musk must have received FAA and EPA approval to launch from Boca, else the story is bogus. There is no update about this on SpaceX’s website.
Last anyone heard he was moving to the Cape where he did have FAA license, but not the EPA license to launch.
The only updates have been various YouTubers that have gone to Bocas to chronicle the continued updating of the 2 vehicles and static tests.
Keep in mind, the whole of this program is based on the “test to failure” model which means rapid testing, something that came to a screeching halt when Biden took office. Last Starship (SN15) launch was May 15 2021

You Ukie shills are pathetic. Ukraine is on the verge of a humanitarian disaster with much of the electrical grid down, they are running out of supplies and have zero chance of defeating Russia, yet Zelensky pushes on till the last Ukrainian.
Whatever stump country is left after this will be a welfare burden on the West for years to come. And the Ukrainians themselves will look like idiots for trying to cozy up to NATO and do the bidding of their Western elite globalist puppet masters in unnecessarily poking the bear, and wind up looking like the suckers they are. And all of this for NOTHING. (Well they did manage to weaken Russia for the US, but destroyed their country n the process.) Use to be the Poles were considered the stupidest in Europe, but after this their Ukrainian cousins will be the newly crowned champs in that regard.
” their Western elite globalist puppet masters “
You forgot to include the HOMOS, silly you.

(Ukrainians) “have zero chance of defeating Russia”
You sound like one of those “three day war” guys, from back in February.
The reality is that Russia’s only chance, is for the West to withdraw support for the Ukrainian forces. After the horrific atrocities deliberately and systematically committed by the Russian forces, that is unlikely. They lost the war in the FSB torture chamber in Bucha.
For the humanitarian disaster, and the terroristic destruction of cities and critical infrastructure, some will need to be held accountable in the Hague.
Millions of Russians have already been pushed below the poverty line. It is going to be worse there than it was during the “special period” after the fall of the Soviet Union.
Putin drove that country of the cliff.
You are delusional if you think Putin will be tried in the Hague, that’s only for the little people from little countries. In terms of war crimes during the last few decades America has done far worse, but you won’t see any American prez tried for that in the Hague either.

Russia also lost a troll yesterday.
LOL!!!
Too bad... Hahaha
“You forgot to include the HOMOS, silly you.”
Ya you would think they would have that down by now...jeeezsch...
Elaborate?
So now she can enjoy her cake knowing that her son died sober.
Russian bakeries are working overtime. Business is booming!
Rumor: Lada factories are bereft of workers - too many were conscripted, leaving only old people and women to bake cookies and cakes for the families who lost 200s.
Unfortunately, this Russian tank driver came in last place in the snow angel contest.
Hopefully, his mother enjoyed her cake.
No no - that image was in March when they were still doling out Ladas to 200s. No cake for them.
Good grief, you people are ghoulish.
It’s no wonder the Ukie shill clique is considered the scourge of FR by many.
“Elaborate?“
Did you get an answer for this?
