Around 65 Russian soldiers were killed at the training ground near the village of Trudivske, Bratchuk said in a post on the Telegram messaging app. The Ukrainian military used two missiles in the strike, the BBC's Russian service reported on Tuesday, citing several anonymous sources.

Units of Russia's 39th Separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade were stationed near Trudivske, Bratchuk said.

Bratchuk posted two videos he said showed the "consequences" of the HIMARS attack, showing what look to be dozens of bodies strewn across a field. Images appearing to show the same site have circulated widely across social media.

Several prominent Russian military bloggers referenced the alleged strike, with Rybar, an account with more than one million subscribers and links to Russia's Defense Ministry, describing the reported attack near Trudivske as a "tragic event."

"The issue of formations of personnel in zones where the enemy is conducting active reconnaissance and where crowded people can become targets for high-precision munitions remains relevant," another Russian military blogger with a significant following wrote on Tuesday. "I hope conclusions will be drawn."

They could always look in the pile of bodies of Ukrainian Marines in Krynky.

They might find him there.

That may be true but it’s also cynical. How do you want Putin to end it? Put a gun in his mouth and pull the trigger?

Dead in the mud of Ukraine. For nothing. The accursed Russian serf always pays for the folly of his Tsar.
