During January 2026, the Ukrainian Defense Forces carried out a series of successful strikes on the Kapustin Yar training range.
According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook, the strikes targeted a complex of hangar-type buildings used for pre-launch preparation of intermediate-range intercontinental ballistic missiles at the Kapustin Yar range in Russia’s Astrakhan region.
The attacks were carried out using long-range Ukrainian-made strike systems, including the FP-5 “Flamingo.”
Available information indicates that several buildings on the site were damaged to varying degrees, one hangar was heavily damaged, and part of the personnel was evacuated from the area.
