Ukrainian Defence Forces carried out a successful strike on a group of Russian servicemen in the occupied part of Donetsk Oblast (presumably, Ilovaisk training grounds) using HIMARS MLRS.

However, as Romanov points out, these were not just regular troops but UAV operators who assembled for training. As we know, UAV operators are being heavily targeted by the Defence Forces. The earlier source mentions 24 dead and 4 wounded as a result of the strike.

Romanov accuses the head of the training courses of negligence for sending invites through a Telegram bot. This could be easily intercepted by the Defence Forces.
