Taking into account the nighttime attack (139 UAVs), a total of over 892 enemy drones of these types were deployed during the day. According to the Air Force, 710 of them were shot down or neutralized by electronic warfare systems.

A distinctive feature of the attack is that the enemy once again used the territory of Belarus and Moldova to fly strike UAVs toward Ukraine.
The air attack was repelled by aviation, anti-aircraft missile forces, electronic warfare and unmanned systems units, and mobile fire groups of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Hits on 27 attack UAVs were recorded, as well as the crash of downed drones (debris) at 26 locations. “The
attack is ongoing; several UAVs are in Ukrainian airspace,” the statement said.
