Russian reconnaissance units from the Vostok group have identified a significant Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU) stronghold equipped with underground communications and concrete fortifications in the Zaporizhzhia region. In response, Russian forces deployed a TOS-1A Solntsepek thermobaric missile system to launch a salvo strike on the position. The thermobaric attack reportedly left Ukrainian forces with no chance to seek shelter in the underground tunnels, effectively neutralizing the stronghold. This operation highlights the ongoing use of heavy weaponry in the southern front of the Ukraine conflict.
