According to Russian media, Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG missiles hit Yuvileiny near Luhansk.

In particular, the Academy of Internal Affairs, where the Russian military is based, suffered damage. It is also noted that five people were allegedly injured.

The head of the Luhansk RMA , Artem Lysogor, reported that the Russians have set up a military base amid civilian buildings.

Until 2014, the Academy of Internal Affairs worked in this area, which was then chosen by the Rashists. "The honor of a Russian officer" is to hide behind the backs of our compatriots and among our homes. In general, nothing new. We congratulate our fighters on a successful hunt, and we are also grateful to our people for the exact coordinates, wrote Lysohor.
