From 1 to 10 November, the Russian army launched 3,519 attack drones at Ukraine. Ukrainian defenders neutralised 3,068 of them.
This was reported by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
According to the military, Russia used drones of the “Shahed”, “Herbera” and “Parodiya” types. Among them were 1,695 jet-powered drones. The Defence Forces neutralised 1,406 such UAVs.
Of the conventional attack drones, the Russians launched 1,824. Ukraine’s air defence shot down or suppressed 1,662 of them.
The General Staff notes that the Russian army is changing its tactics and increasingly using jet-powered UAVs, which are faster and more dangerous.
At the same time, the Defence Forces are improving methods of countering air attacks, building up capabilities and looking for ways to neutralise enemy drones more effectively.
