KIEV (Sputnik) — The borderline of Ukraine’s missile launch site is approximately 17-20 miles away from the northwestern coast of Crimea, which completely rules out any threat to people living on the peninsula, Ukraine’s Air Force command said Thursday.
“The borderline of the eastern part of a specified [rocket launch] site passes 27-30 kilometers [17-20 miles] away from the northwestern coast of Crimea, a direct rocket launch site – at a distance of 90 kilometers, which completely rules out any threat to the residents of the peninsula,” the statement on the Facebook account said.
