Russia Suffers 'Massive Casualties' After HIMARS Strike on Donbas Base

NEWSWEEK

Ukrainian forces are reported to have struck a Russian military base in the occupied Donetsk region with a High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), causing "massive casualties."

Graphic videos circulating on social media, which Newsweek could not independently verify and will not share for ethical reasons, purported to show the devastating aftermath of the strike. It's not clear where or when it was filmed.

"A video has appeared online showing the aftermath of an attack, presumably on a training ground near Donetsk," the ASTRA Telegram channel, a project run by independent Russian journalists, said on Tuesday.

The channel cited Russian military channel Alex Parker Returns, who said the attack was carried out by "HIMARS cluster munitions during another exercise."

"Massive casualties. You can make mistakes, but you can't lie. Unteachable. Alas," the channel said, sharing the 11-second clip.
