Ukraine-Russia military strikes

Overview

Ukrainian forces have conducted strikes against Russian military and civilian infrastructure. In late August, a significant missile and drone attack targeted occupied Donetsk, hitting military headquarters, troop deployment sites, and an underground parking complex used for armored vehicles. The strikes caused civilian casualties and damage to residential buildings and infrastructure. There was debate among officials regarding whether the munitions used were British-French Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG missiles or AGM-158 JASSM missiles.

By mid-September, the focus of Ukrainian operations included the Rostov region of Russia. Drone strikes targeted military aviation assets, specifically the Rostov-Central airport. Ukrainian sources claimed the destruction of several aircraft, including Mi-8 helicopters and An-12 and An-26 transport planes. While Russian regional authorities confirmed that air defenses intercepted drones over Rostov-on-Don, Taganrog, and Bataysk, local reports also noted damage to gas pipelines, vehicles, and residential buildings.
