Commander of the Unmanned Systems Forces, Robert Brovdi, reported strikes on gas infrastructure in Russian-occupied Crimea on the night of June 19-20. In addition to the previously reported strike on a bridge over the Henichesk Strait, Ukrainian forces hit four gas compressor stations in the settlements of Zhuravlivka, Aromatne, Kliuchi, and Lokhivka. They also attacked Russian logistics vehicles. Earlier, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated that on the night of June 19-20, units struck a road bridge over the Henichesk Strait near the town of Henichesk in Kherson Oblast. The bridge connects Henichesk to the Arabat Spit and serves as a logistical route between Russian-occupied Crimea and the Ukrainian mainland.
