A KEY Russian facility used to train more than 10,000 kamikaze drone operators for Vladimir Putin's army has been wiped out by Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Six people were killed and 11 wounded in last night's devastating alleged HIMARS – high mobility artillery rocket system – attack.<\/p>\n

Dramatic footage showed people being rescued from the blitzed Zhoga Republican Centre for Unmanned Systems in Russian-occupied Donetsk city, climbing over rubble and scaling fire service ladders to get to safety.<\/p>\n
Russian operators were taught for both strike and reconnaissance at the military training facility set up to massively increase UAV attacks against Ukraine.<\/p>\n
Its historic buildings also housed civil servants from Russia's Department of Labour and Social Protection of the Population.<\/p>\n
The city centre was allegedly hit by three strikes<\/span> from HIMARS launchers, according to the Russia-installed proxy head in Donetsk, Denis Pushilin.<\/p>\n He claimed there was a direct hit to an occupation authorities building and four civilian infrastructure facilities were damaged, the Kyiv Independent reports.<\/p>\n Correspondents of the Russian state news<\/span> agency RIA Novosti reported hearing three to four blasts in the city.<\/p>\n The alleged Ukrainian missile strike came mere hours after the centre's head boasted of its success in training drone operators.<\/p>\n Dmitry Barov said: "The Republican Centre for Unmanned Systems has trained more than 10,000 military experts for the Russian army since the start of its work."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Russia will hold a special meeting of the UN security council on Wednesday over Ukraine's attacks on Donetsk.<\/p>\n The city has been at the centre of multiple bombardments by Ukraine since it was taken by Russia over a year ago.<\/p>\n Just last week, Ukraine launched an attack on train tankers which created a raging inferno, reportedly killing two people and wounding a dozen as a huge smoke cloud filled the air.<\/p>\n An incoming Ukrainian shell<\/span> hit the train tankers at Mushketovo train station, sending flames hundreds of feet into the sky<\/span>.<\/p>\n Disrupting transportation networks is a key tactic for Ukraine in order to wreak havoc in Moscow-controlled parts of Ukraine and break apart Russian supply lines to the front line.<\/p>\n Russian puppet leader in Donetsk Denis Pushilin said at the time: "Two people were killed, including an employee of the Ministry of Emergency Situations."<\/p>\n Major Russian newspaper Izvestia said three of its reporters were injured by the explosion.<\/p>\n Ukraine is now bracing for a renewed Russian assault in the eastern city of Avdiivka, located just 10km north of Donetsk.<\/p>\n Vitaly Barabash, the head of the Avdiivka military administration, said: "The third wave will definitely happen.<\/p>\n "The enemy is regrouping after a second wave of unsuccessful attacks."<\/p>\n Ukraine humiliated Russia on the battlefield<\/span> by blowing up a \u00a35million Russian tank using only a \u00a3300 drone\u00a0earlier this month.<\/p>\n Footage shared by\u00a0Ukraine's 59th Motorised Brigade showed the final moments of a TOS-1A Heavy flamethrower before the dramatic explosion.<\/p>\n The epic scene was filmed from a Ukrainian drone hovering above the soviet tank, which was later decimated.<\/p>\n Only weeks before, Ukrainian jet ski commandos launched a raid that struck at the heart of Putin's naval stronghold.<\/p>\n In the dead of night, twenty frogmen loaded up with guns, grenades and rockets embarked on a\u00a0daring mission\u00a0inside occupied Crimea, which\u00a0Russia\u00a0has spent years turning into a fortress.<\/p>\n As their boots<\/span> hit the ground, they were the first Ukrainian troops to set foot on the illegally annexed peninsula in almost a decade.<\/p>\n Kyiv then released\u00a0further incredible footage of their successful midnight incursion\u00a0in an added embarrassment for Russian forces.<\/p>\nRead more on the Ukraine war<\/h2>\n
