Details: The strike occurred near the village of Ovsyannikovo in Russia's Kursk Oblast. The vehicle had been used to transport, load and prepare missiles for launch, which were then used to attack Ukrainian territory.

The Ukrainian special forces and local partisans also destroyed a 1L122 Harmon radar station that had been on active duty near the village of Nizhny Reutets, also in Kursk Oblast. This compact radar system is designed to detect and track aerial targets and to provide targeting data.
