Ukraine hits base of Russian paramilitary group Wagner after photos revealed location:
Ukraine said Monday that it successfully struck the headquarters of the Wagner Group, the elite Russian paramilitary organization fighting on behalf of the Kremlin — just days after photos posted online mistakenly revealed the location.
Ukrainian governor of Luhansk Serhiy Hayday announced the country’s forces struck the group’s main operation in the eastern city of Popasna, according to the BBC.
Pro-Kremlin war reports also acknowledged the attack.
Details about the strike were not immediately clear, including how many died in the attack and the extent of the damage it caused.
Ukraine was able to locate the headquarters after a Russian propagandist, Sergei Sreda, accidentally revealed its location in photos posted to Telegram on Aug. 8, Ukrainian newspaper Ukrainska Pravda reported. —>READ MORE HERE
