An industrial building reportedly used by Kiev’s military officer corps were targeted with Iskander ballistic weapons
Russian forces have targeted a Ukrainian military headquarters with Iskander ballistic missiles, the Defense Ministry reported Monday. The facility housed officers overseeing the operative task force Lugansk, the ministry claimed.
The attack on the alleged command and control site in Druzhkovka, a town under Kiev’s control in Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic, was reportedly filmed by a drone. Video released by the ministry shows two projectiles hitting a large industrial building, apparently part of a Soviet-era machine factory.
The town lies about 30 kilometers northwest of Dzerzhinsk, also known as Toretsk, which previously played a key role in Ukrainian operations before being liberated by Russian forces in February.
The ministry did not specify when the strike occurred. However, the same footage first appeared Saturday on a Telegram channel that covers the Ukraine conflict.
The Iskander missile system is designed to destroy high-value targets at ranges of up to 500 km. It can carry a 480-kg payload and offers various warhead options depending on the mission. Traveling at speeds of around Mach 6, it is difficult to intercept and is suited for time-sensitive operations.
