Ukrainian forces struck several key Russian military targets, including the rare Bussol-S radar system, ammunition depots and more, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
According to the military, Ukrainian forces carried out successful strikes on key enemy targets during July 20 and overnight into July 21.
In the area of the village of Khorly in the Kherson region, the Bussol-S radar station was struck. The radar is designed to detect and provide targeting coordinates for maritime targets, allowing Russian forces to control the coastal waters.
Depots and UAV command posts
The Defense Forces also struck Russian military logistics and command assets. In particular, they hit:
-
A logistics depot in Davydovske, Donetsk region;
-
An ammunition depot in Kundriuche, Luhansk region;

A logistics support depot near Popovo-Lezhachi in Russia's Kursk region.
In addition, enemy drone command posts were struck near Komar and the village of Zaporizhzhia in the Donetsk region, as well as near Kamianske in the Zaporizhzhia region.
"The Defense Forces of Ukraine will continue to systematically carry out measures aimed at stopping the armed aggression of Russia," the General Staff emphasized.
On the night of July 19, the Defense Forces of Ukraine struck two Russian tankers in the Black Sea and also hit a floating crane in the Sea of Azov. A Buk air defense system located near Zelenopillia in the Zaporizhzhia region also came under fire.
On the night of July 18, Ukrainian drones also attacked many targets inside Russia. In particular, a major fire broke out at a Wildberries warehouse in the city of Elektrostal in the Moscow region.
