IIRC the Dnipro attack was the one where Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych was summarily fired for admitting that the residential building was hit because the missile was shot down by Ukrainian anti aircraft missiles.

I don't think the presidential advisor has access to military data. And the videos floating around show the incoming missile at high speed. IMO, if it really was hit, the trajectory would be different.

The recent attack in Zaporizhya is similar:

Not for "admitting". For claiming.

Arestovych is basically a pundit. He admitted he doesn't have any insider access to military information, he just aggregates official releases and rumors into some coherent view.

There were many attacks on civilian objects before and after - in fact it seems like 90% of Russian targets are civilian. So I don't think there's any reason to treat that Dnipro attack as something special
