Ukraine's General Staff confirms strikes on Russian command posts in Donetsk

Ukraine's Defense Forces targeted key command posts of Russian forces in occupied Donetsk on August 26 and the following night, according to the Ukrainian General Staff. Air-launched missiles were utilized in the attacks. The General Staff also reported an assault on an enemy repair and recovery unit near Chonhar in Kherson Oblast, along with a drone control point in Olenivka in Russian-occupied Crimea.

Additionally, enemy troop clusters were targeted near Novopetrivka in Zaporizhzhya Oblast and Voskhod in Crimea. On August 26, substantial explosions and a significant missile strike were reported in Donetsk, with online reports indicating hits and wounded Russian troops. OSINT analysts from CyberBoroshno and Exilenova+ later discovered that missiles targeted a two-level underground parking garage of a residential complex in Donetsk, likely serving as a command post for a Russian military unit.

Ukraine's Armed Forces may have employed new JDAM-LR cruise missiles with a range of 550 kilometers (approximately 340 miles), secretly supplied by the United States, to strike Donetsk.
