Ukraine Strikes Russian Command Center in Luhansk with British Storm Shadow Missiles

Ukraine's General Staff confirmed that British-supplied Storm Shadow cruise missiles successfully struck a Russian military headquarters in occupied Luhansk region on Monday. The strike achieved multiple direct hits on the command-and-control facility, with Ukrainian forces vowing to continue similar operations.

According to the General Staff, the target was a major Russian headquarters located near Dovzhansk in the occupied Luhansk region. The use of Storm Shadow missiles marks continued deployment of long-range Western weaponry provided to Ukraine for strikes deep inside Russian-held territory. The strike demonstrates Ukraine's ability to target high-value military infrastructure despite Russian occupation, though no independent verification of damage was immediately available. Russia has not yet commented on the reported attack.
