A series of "powerful" Russian strikes on military infrastructure in Lviv on Monday left at least six dead and ignited blazes in the west Ukraine city that has been spared fierce fighting.
A resident of Lviv told AFP they could see thick plumes of grey smoke rising above residential buildings and air raid sirens sounded throughout the city during and after the strikes.

"At the moment, we are able to confirm that six are dead and eight injured. A child was among the victims," the Lviv regional governor Maksym Kozytsky said on social media.

He said that four Russian missiles had targeted Ukrainian military infrastructure and that a car tyre centre had also been struck.

"Fires were set off as a result of the strikes. They are still being put out. The facilities were severely damaged," Kozytsky said.

Twenty-one-year-old Lviv resident Andrei said he was sleeping when the sirens began wailing at around 8:00 am (0600 GMT).

"I slept through the first three strikes, but then when the last one hit, it was like my windows were about to break, and the furniture moved," he told.

Are the Russians clever enough to booby trap their abandoned equipment? We shall see.

That doesn't really happen too much outside of movies. SOP for most countries is to grab the sensitive equipment/materials and take with you, or damage the important parts of the equipment so it cannot be used anymore then GTFO there.

For tanks, we were trained to take a few pieces, then go through a procedure of damaging the weapon systems, usually with white phosphorus grenades before abandoning it (or just disable the tank with another tank).

I'm an Air Force maintenance guy so I don't think like ground troops. I couldn't have done what USMC/USA guys did.
