Over the past day, May 20, the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed five air targets of the Russian occupiers: three UAVs, one cruise missile, one unidentified target.

"On May 20, the ruscists continued to launch missile strikes, trying to hit Ukrainian transport interchanges and critical infrastructure facilities. Ukrainian fighter jets patrol the airspace in the territory controlled by the Armed Forces, and the Air Force combat aircraft once again struck the clusters of equipment, manpower, and other enemy objects. As a result of air strikes, at least 20 armored personnel vehicles were destroyed," the press service of the Air Force Command posted on Facebook.

As noted, the air defense units of the Land Forces hit Orlan-10 and Zala unmanned aerial vehicles. Another Orlan-10 operational-tactical UAV and one cruise missile were downed by the anti-aircraft missile units of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. One target of unknown type was also hit (probably an enemy helicopter, information to be clarified).
