According to the report, Ukrainian forces launched massive strikes on Russian military infrastructure and logistical hubs in Russian-occupied Luhansk, Donetsk, and Crimea, using drones and missiles to hit high-value targets. Ukrainian forces have repeatedly struck Russian military, defense industry, and energy infrastructure in both occupied territories and inside Russia. The ongoing air campaign is aimed at crippling Russian military logistics and its capacity to continue the war. Loud explosions rocked occupied Luhansk overnight on 1 July, triggering large fires reportedly caused by Ukrainian drone strikes. According to Russian occupation authorities and Russian propaganda media cited by Liga, around 20 drones were spotted over Luhansk, prompting the introduction of a “caution regime” in several cities in the region, including Khrustalnyi, Sukodolsk, and Bilokurakyne.
The report also said that the Ukrainian Telegram channel Supernova claimed that Ukraine used Storm Shadow/SCALP-EG cruise missiles to strike the headquarters of Russia’s 8th Combined Arms Army, located at the Donetsk Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals. The Dnipro-based outlet Harbuz also attributed the attack to Storm Shadow missiles. The 8th Combined Arms Army of the Russian Armed Forces was formed in 2017 and played a key role in preparations for the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Its original headquarters were in Novocherkassk. Some Ukrainian sources, including the Telegram page Kiberboroshno, alleged that the facility was involved in Russian drone and electronic warfare systems development. Russian channels attempted to downplay the strike by claiming no military personnel had been stationed in the building recently. Several floors collapsed into the basement. On-site rescuers speaking to people filming — presumed to be from Russia’s FSB security agency — described the scene using Russian military casualty codes — “300” for wounded and “200” for dead, confirming the presence of both. Supernova+ commented that “the building was hit down to the basement… they’re carrying out ‘200s’ in packs.” Meanwhile, local propaganda outlets confirmed the city had been targeted by Storm Shadow missiles and reported additional fires at the Sokol market. Unconfirmed reports suggested hits also occurred at a metallurgical plant and in the railway zone. Ukraine’s Main Directorate of Intelligence released footage showing its UJ-26 Bober drones targeting Russian military systems in occupied Crimea.
