At the time of the attack, the first deputy commander of the Leningrad Military District, Lieutenant General Valery Solodchuk, was at the command post, sources said.
As a result of a strike by Storm Shadow cruise missiles on an underground command post of the Russian Army in the Kursk region, at least 18 Russian military personnel were killed. This was reported by the Telegram channel Spy Dossier on Thursday, November 21.
33 others were reportedly injured, including three North Korean soldiers.
“Most of the victims were air defense officers (Southern Military District – Ed.) and SVO (Eastern Military District – Ed.),” the message said.
In addition, it is said that at the time of the attack, the first deputy commander of the Leningrad Military District, Lieutenant General Valery Solodchuk, was at the command post. Nothing is known about his condition.
At the same time, another 13 soldiers from a unit of the 88th Engineer Regiment were injured while clearing the rubble when unknown ammunition exploded. Among the wounded was the deputy chief of staff of the regiment.
Let’s recall that on November 20, the media reported that the United States allowed Ukraine to use British Storm Shadow missiles for attacks deep into Russia. However, the UK itself has not yet confirmed the lifting of restrictions.
On the same day, missiles attacked a target in the Kursk region. Later, a video appeared of the missiles “arriving”.
