+Debugging
+=========
+
+STM32U5 support is not currently supported in openocd. As a temporary workaround,
+user can use `STMicroelectronics customized version of OpenOCD`_ to debug the
+the Nucleo U575ZI Q.
+For this you need to fetch this repo and build openocd following the instructions
+provided in the README of the project. Then, build zephyr project indicating the
+openocd location in west build command.
+
+Here is an example for the :ref:`blinky-sample` application.
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
+   :board: nucleo_u575zi_q
+   :gen-args: -DOPENOCD="<path_to_openocd>/openocd/src/openocd" -DOPENOCD_DEFAULT_PATH="<path_to_openocd>/openocd/tcl/"
+   :goals: build
+
+Then, indicate openocd as the chosen runner in flash and debug commands:
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/basic/blinky
+   :board: nucleo_u575zi_q
+   :gen-args: -r openocd
