Ukrainian forces conducted a missile strike on the headquarters of the Russian “Dnepr” Grouping of Forces in Russia-occupied Kherson Oblast on 1 November, ISW reported, citing Russian sources.
A Russian milblogger stated that Ukrainian forces launched Storm Shadow cruise missiles and Neptune anti-ship missiles targeting Strilkove, Kherson Oblast, on the Arabat Spit. He added that Russian air defences only intercepted half of the incoming missiles.
A Russian media outlet Astra reported that four Ukrainian missiles struck the “Aura” recreation center near Strilkove that reportedly served as the headquarters for the Russian Dnepr Grouping. The extent of the damage and potential casualties from the alleged strike remains unclear.
The Institute for the Study of War, a US-based think tank, estimates that neither side has officially confirmed the attack. Ukraine has not claimed responsibility, while Russia has not acknowledged any missile strikes in the area.
