According to the channel, the Defense Forces struck the operational command post of the Center military group.
This group, formed from forces of the Russian Federation’s Central Military District, is one of the key and most combat-capable operational-strategic formations of the Russian army involved in the war against Ukraine.

The second target struck was the building of the former UkrDerzhNDIplastmas research institute.
The Russian army has repeatedly used similar facilities in the occupied territories for its own needs due to their large area and the presence of protected underground spaces.
