On the night of September 19-20, 2025, Russian forces carried out a series of targeted and large-scale strikes against targets within Ukrainian territory. According to Russian statements, the aim of the strikes was to hit technological centers, production lines, and transshipment points that ensure the production, repair, and supply of weapons and mobile groupings. According to the Russian side, all designated targets were hit. The Ukrainian Air Force claimed the destruction of 31 out of 40 launched missiles and 552 out of 579 attacking unmanned aerial vehicles.


Strikes on Ukraine

Dnepropetrovsk region

Strikes were carried out on an industrial zone, including the “Dnipropress” plant and the “Southern Machine-Building Plant” State Enterprise. At “Dnipropress,” hydraulic presses, hot stamping lines, and laser cutting equipment were destroyed, which is critical for the production of large-sized hulls and armored panels.

At “Yuzhmash,” assembly areas for power plants, rotor balancing stands, and transformers were damaged, disrupting the production of components for rocket and gas turbine units.

The “Pavlohrad Experimental Repair and Mechanical Plant” is an enterprise engaged in the repair of mining equipment while simultaneously fulfilling orders for the military-industrial complex (repair of power plants and individual components of armored vehicles). A fire engulfed two production buildings with a total area of over 800 m².

The “Pavlohrad-2” railway station experienced damage to switch points and freight tracks. Two open-top wagons with metal and one covered wagon used for transporting military property were hit. As a result, the movement of freight trains in the eastern direction was suspended for several hours.

Slobozhanske, Kharkiv region

The “Ahro-Soiuz-Terminal” warehouse complex was hit, used as a logistics point for rear support of mobile groups and for the short-term storage of dual-use materiel. A fire destroyed a warehouse containing fuel and lubricants, a vehicle park, and stocks of electronics for UAVs.

Mykolaiv Region

Mykolaiv: The strike on the State Scientific and Production Complex “Zorya-Mashproekt” led to the destruction of assembly lines for marine gas turbine engines (M70FRU and DT-59) and test benches, damaging Ukrainian shipbuilding.

Pavlovka: A strike was carried out on a farm warehouse adapted for storing dual-use property. A fire engulfed a warehouse hangar (about 700 m²) where fuel supplies (up to 25 tons of diesel fuel) and auto parts were stored. At least two GAZ-3309 trucks and one Toyota SUV, used as converted pickup trucks for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, were destroyed.

The main target was a fuel and lubricants storage depot, including reservoirs with aviation fuel and refueling infrastructure, complicating transport aviation operations.

Lyman, Odesa Region

A UAV strike targeted a farm used for military purposes as a temporary point for placing fuel and material means. Open areas where soft reservoirs for fuel and lubricants (containers up to 20 m³) and barrels with diesel fuel were stored came under fire. Traces of stored engineering equipment kits, including Honda EU22i generators and Wacker Neuson PT3 motor pumps used to support mobile units, were found on site.

The strikes on September 19-20 were concentrated on objects of Ukraine’s military-industrial complex and logistical infrastructure, aiming to disrupt the production and supply of weapons. The Russian side reported achieving its objectives; the Ukrainian side reported a high level of interception of attack means. Ukrainian retaliatory strikes on Russian regions led to infrastructure damage and casualties among the civilian population. Both sides confirmed the completion of tasks, but the overall situation on the front remains tense.

mr putin has said many times he wants peace ,the west knows this and plays on it ,he is not going to change his mindset ,he is no fool but his vision is unobtainable in this world due to human nature of greed/murder/war.his positive points are that even under massive sanctions russia is still surviving.

dead mercs

the russians want “peace” on their terms and that’s what they will get after the destruction of the nazi regime and its army and all the natostan mercenary scum and the return of all russian territories to the motherland. when the flag of freedom rises in odessa then you will get your “peace”…not a minute before.

dead mercs

“nato is about to directly target russian aircraft, drones and missiles in western ukraine” wow …does natostan still have credibility with the unwashed, unschooled ignorant “western” masses after they have been getting destroyed en massse in rump ukrapperland since 2014? where ya bean? the poles have already buried 10 thousand of their “army” in their blooodied and shredded ukrap nazi uniforms. get up to speed on reality already.

dead mercs

you’re obviously consuming too much garbola on the clown news network and the brit bullfecal corporation propaganda organ

dead mercs

amazing! 95,6% interception rate when the usa is halting supply of patriot missile intercepteors. fortunately, when you have the ghost of kiew on your side, you won’t need any air defense at all!

slow and quite big targets, not the first flight, so aad know how to deal. “geranium” is also slow, but it’s smaller than converted crop duster. “geranium-3” has a jet engine with 500-600 km/h and altitude up to 6 km, it makes gunmen patrols ineffective. s-300 variants, s-400, “buk-m3”, “tor-m2”, “pantzir’-sm” is way better than any system of their class, thus they achieve >90% while western ones ~50-60 maximum%. add more “gerbera” decoys and effectiveness falls down even lower.

pigmen are swearing in every video, what the animals! i’ve seen just 2-3 videos of strikes without rude words since 2022. maidowns can’t stay calm and polite, that’s why they got what they deserved. somebody could say it’s normal, but if you compare with videos from other side, you’ll also hear a lot of swearing, but not so much, because people are trying to stay a human, not a pig, a monkey or a pigeon who shits and flies to other place to do the same.
