Ukraine’s Defense Forces struck a Russian command post, repair unit, logistics depots, and troop concentrations across three regions, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on October 20.

The strikes were carried out on October 19 and overnight into October 20 in the Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions. A Russian command post near Fedorivka in the Zaporizhzhia region was among the targets.

Ukrainian forces also struck a Russian military repair unit near Kalmiuske in the Donetsk region. The General Staff noted that disabling such facilities complicates Russia’s ability to repair damaged equipment and return it to the battlefield.

Logistics depots were targeted near Kripenskyi in the Luhansk region, Rivnopil in the Donetsk region, and Lahidne in the Zaporizhzhia region. “Operations against key enemy military targets will continue until the armed aggression of Russia against Ukraine is fully terminated,” the General Staff stated.

Russian troop concentrations were also struck near Rybalivka, Basan, Fedorivka, and Mykolaivka in the Zaporizhzhia region. Additional strikes targeted concentrations near Zelenyi Hai, Horlivka, and Selydove in the Donetsk region, as well as Svatove in the Luhansk region.

The latest strikes extend a sustained Ukrainian campaign against the repair, supply, and personnel networks sustaining Russian forces in the temporarily occupied east.

On October 10 and overnight into October 11, Ukrainian forces hit a military repair unit near Chystiakove, a logistics warehouse near Makiivka, a storage facility near Horodyshche, and troop concentrations near Purdivka, Lysychansk, and Irmino.

Those attacks followed another wave of strikes on October 10 against Russian command posts in the Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk regions, an electronic warfare station in Russia's Bryansk region, a training facility in the temporarily occupied Kherson region, and a repair base near Sukhodilsk.
