Yeah, so, the Pantsir system hasn't exactly proven to be particularly reliable.
It can't hit targets for shit either.

That's funny, my first thought was 'That's a really clean room for what is supposed to be a missile strike.' .
Given then state of the missile remains, I presume it also failed to arm itself and / or failed to detonate. Got to hand it to the Russians: Their failures are, if nothing else, remarkably comprehensive.
Itβs just the first stage that detached and fell through the roof, so the final state of the actual payload is unknown
You're welcome - Kremlin
This is only a booster part of the missile, not the whole missile. It is full of fuel, until the fuel is all spent. Then the part is dropped away so that it wouldn't be unnecessary extra weight.
Yes, I probably should've specified that.
You still can ;)
