The Telegraph: At least seven Russian officers have been killed in a missile strike near occupied Mariupol, a Ukrainian official has claimed.
Petro Andryushchenko, an aide to Mariupol’s exiled Ukrainian mayor, said at least six missiles struck a camp being used by the Russian military in Babakh-Tarama, in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region.
The attack caused at least seven fatalities, while more than ten other people were injured.
“All of them [the victims] are officers, no soldiers live there,” he said in a post on Telegram.
Ukrainian forces have repeatedly targeted key Russian bases deep behind enemy lines, using long-range missiles and drones.
