The Ukrainian Air Force reported that over the past 24 hours, Russia deployed 44 missiles and 659 drones. The strikes occurred in two waves, during which Ukrainian air defense forces destroyed or neutralized 667 of the Russian drones and missiles.
A distinctive feature of this Russian attack was the use of a large number of ballistic missiles—19 Iskander-M/S-400 missiles were launched at 4 Ukrainian regions.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that during the Russian attack over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian defenders destroyed all cruise missiles launched by the Russians. F-16s participated in shooting down the targets.
