Russia painted decoy aircraft at Primorsko-Akhtarsk air base, new satellite imagery shows.

And since shadows move with the sun, you can't paint them on. What they should do is either build 3D replicas to accurately cast shadows, or simply paint the flat image onto raised plywood sheets - though the shadow realism would be less. Or how about not leaving your aircraft outside in neat lines like it's peacetime.

Shelling in the center of the Russian border city of Belgorod killed 14 people, including two children, and injured 108 others Saturday, Russia's Emergency Situations Ministry said.
Russian officials accused Kyiv of carrying out the attack, which took place the day after an 18-hour aerial bombardment across Ukraine killed at least 39 civilians.
Images of Belgorod on social media showed burning cars and plumes of black smoke rising among damaged buildings as air raid sirens sounded. One strike hit close to a public ice rink in the very heart of the city.
Russia's Defense Ministry said it identified the ammunition used in the strike as Czech-made Vampire rockets and Olkha cluster munitions. It provided no additional information, and The Associated Press was unable to verify its claims.

I really hope this is Russian BS. Support for Ukraine is in trouble enough as it is without Ukraine copying the Russians in attacking civilians.

Unfortunately, the are plenty of useful idiots here in America who will seize upon anything to render aid and comfort to Russian aims.
