Ukrainian Defense Forces have struck a Russian observation post in the Zaporizhzhia region, which the Russian forces also used for launching drones, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
"On February 25, the Ukrainian Air Force carried out a successful precision strike on a residential building used by the Russian 1429th Motorized Rifle Regiment as a command and observation post and a launch site for UAVs," the statement reads.
The facility was located near the village of Kopani in the Zaporizhzhia region. As a result of the strike, the Russian military's ability to terrorize Ukrainian civilians has been significantly reduced.
"The Ukrainian Air Force will continue operations to eliminate enemy forces, equipment, and military infrastructure until Russia withdraws its troops from Ukraine's sovereign territory," the General Staff stated.
