Ukraine’s General Staff said its forces struck four Russian military sites in Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk oblasts on Nov. 5 and overnight into Nov. 6, saying the action aimed to weaken Russian forces and disrupt supply.

The list covered ammunition depots near Melitopol and Khliborobne in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, along with a UAV command post by Chasiv Yar and a fuel-and-lubricants storage site near Luhanske in Donetsk Oblast.

The General Staff’s release headline described the depots as destroyed, but its body said they had been struck and gave no damage assessment. It also provided no casualty figures.

The Kyiv Independent and Ukrainska Pravda described the Zaporizhzhia sites as being in Russian-occupied territory. The General Staff named the locations but did not specify who controlled them.

A separate General Staff update reported a strike on a drone depot near Melitopol during Nov. 4 and overnight into Nov. 5.
