Russia Says Its Su-34 Fighter Jets Destroyed Ukrainian Command Post In South Donetsk

Russia has said that it has taken out Ukrainian command posts in South Donetsk using Su-34 fighter jets.

The footage purports to show one of the aircraft being loaded with large bombs before taxiing onto a runway and taking to the skies.

The fighter jet is then seen flying low over countryside before dropping its bomb from a high altitude.

The images cut to a number of explosions, reportedly the Ukrainian positions being hit, as the footage ends.

“Strikes were delivered by high-explosive air-dropped bombs with a universal planning and correction module.”

We have not been able to independently verify the claims or the footage.
