Wapujarkal

I have found the place "Wapujarkal" in 2 diffrent Leitstungbuchs but fails to find out what the place is called today. It's refered to be in "89487/24" but I don't have any referense to the german map coordinates. I think the place would be in Ukraine.

Can anyone help?

Thank you
Peter

On 5 May 1944 both I/KG4 and 2./KG27 took of from Focsani in Rumania at aound 19.30 to bomb the railway yard at this plase, landed around 23.15

Hi Peter

PQ 89487/24 Ost must be about 20-25km SSW Tultschyn.
Nearby I found the following town:
Wapnjarka (48.531762, 28.742809)

best wishes
JoMe
