**Ukraine Targets Russian Military Assets with Drone Strikes**
On the night of November 19 to 20, Ukraine launched a coordinated drone attack on Russian military infrastructure. Ukrainian forces used both long-range missiles and drone technology to target strategic assets deep within Russia.
The strikes were carried out across multiple Russian oblasts, including Kursk Oblast and Belgorod Oblast. According to reports, the targets included a command post for Russian troops in Gubkin, as well as the EFKO Factory in Alekseyevka, which produces cargo drones for the Russian military.
**Missile Arsenal Hit**
One of the most significant strikes was against an arsenal storing diverse missile systems, including North Korean ballistic missiles. The 13th Main Missile and Artillery Directorate (GRAU) arsenal near Kotovo, Novgorod Oblast, was hit by Ukrainian forces. The arsenal reportedly stored a range of military equipment, including artillery ammunition and surface-to-air missile systems.
**UK Denies Storm Shadow Strike**
There were reports that Ukraine launched the British Storm Shadow missile against Russian targets for the first time. However, the UK denied these claims.
**Russian Air Defense Systems Active**
The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed its air defense systems intercepted or destroyed 44 Ukrainian drones across various regions. Despite this, Ukrainian forces continued to carry out drone strikes, targeting multiple Russian military and defense industrial infrastructure.
**Details Remain Unclear**
While details about the attacks remain unclear, one thing is certain: Ukraine’s military continues to target Russian military assets with increasing frequency and sophistication. The true extent of the damage and the effectiveness of Russia’s air defense systems will likely become clear in the coming days.
