Ukraine’s Air Force launched precision strikes on a Russian military command post in the temporarily occupied town of Oleshky, Kherson region.

The strike was conducted by a Ukrainian MiG-29 fighter jet, which deployed two GBU-62 guided bombs.

The video of the strike was shared by the journalist Yurii Butusov.

The GBU-62 is a precision-guided bomb developed by the United States, based on the BLU-122/B penetrator warhead and integrated with a Joint Direct Attack Munition guidance kit. It is designed to destroy deeply buried and hardened targets, such as fortified bunkers or command centers, often located underground.

On March 29, it was reported that the operators of the 414th Separate Brigade of Unmanned Aerial Systems have struck a rare Russian TOS-2 “Tosochka” flamethrower system.
