Using partisan intel, the Ukrainian military targeted a building in an occupied village in the Kherson region where Russians were reportedly holding a meeting, allegedly killing five high-ranking Russian officials, according to the Center of National Resistance Telegram channel.

“Thanks to the information provided by the underground and concerned local residents, an attack was made,” the post reads.

The strike took place on Nov. 28, and Ukrainian partisans claim the elimination of five high-ranking Russian army officials.

Conversely, the Russian Telegram channel ASTRA reported the destruction of the two-story building of the “Novokakhovsky” department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in the occupied village of Yuvileyne.

• Senior Police Lieutenant Mergen Nimgirov (46 years old), operative in the illegal “police” in the occupied region.
• Police Captain Serhiy Novikov (45 years old), juvenile inspector.

The ASTRA report indicates at least 17 injuries, including Deputy Head of the Department Police Lieutenant Zhanna Khabirova (46 years old), Deputy Head of the Department Police Lieutenant Colonel Tetyana Trumbovetska (44 years old), and Head of the Investigative Department Lieutenant Colonel of Justice Amida Midelashvili (39 years old).
