"A precise hit and only a crater remained from the command post," the military commented. 

The fight for Soledar, which is located 20 kilometers northeast of Bakhmut, intensified in early January 2023. Back then, the Russians focused the main attack there and called its capture the key to the further encirclement of Bakhmut. The Ukrainian Armed Forces withdrew from the town at the end of that month. Then Russian forces began to gain a foothold there, moving their command posts to the settlement.
