Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces (SSO) struck a Russian Marine base in Russia’s Kursk region, targeting the notorious 810th Separate Marine Brigade, according to a statement and drone footage released by the SSO Command on September 19.
The overnight strike on September 18 hit what Ukrainian forces described as a logistics hub used by the Russian unit. Drone footage shows a series of direct impacts on buildings housing supplies, ammunition stockpiles, and hidden weapons and equipment belonging to the 810th Brigade.
“The strike destroyed storage facilities, ammunition depots, and concealed military hardware of the 810th Marine Brigade,” the SSO reported.
The 810th Brigade, based in occupied Sevastopol, has been actively engaged in Russia’s offensive operations on Ukraine’s northern Slobozhansky front.
Ukrainian officials have also accused their personnel of committing war crimes, including the execution of captured Ukrainian soldiers.
Earlier, Ukrainian forces eliminated the unit’s deputy commander during a strike on a command post in Lgov, Kursk region.
