Ukrainian Air Force successfully struck a Russian command post in the Kherson region. Due to the strike, dozens of occupiers were killed, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reports.

According to the General Staff, the strike, which destroyed the command post of the 81st Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment of the Russian Armed Forces, was carried out on April 7.

"Thanks to the professional skills of Ukrainian pilots, the concrete building was completely destroyed. Casualties are currently being clarified, but 20-30 occupiers were eliminated. This strike has seriously undermined the enemy units' ability to conduct combat operations in the area," the General Staff added.
