That night, Russia attacked Ukraine with an Iskander-M ballistic missile from the territory of occupied Crimea and 78 Shahed attack drones from Kursk, Yeysk, and Primorsko-Akhtarsk.
The defenders managed to shoot down 60 attack drones. Two more returned to Russia, one flew to Belarus, and 15 were lost locally, presumably under the influence of electronic warfare, the Air Force said in a Telegram post.
No damage or casualties were reported.
Air defences were operating in Kyiv, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, Vinnytsya, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Kherson, Poltava, Chernihiv, Zhytomyr, Zaporizhzhya and Kherson Regions.
