Ukraine Air Force Takes Out 10 Drones, 1 Russian Missile

Ukraine’s air defense units has successfully downed 10 out of 14 Russian drones launched overnight, as reported by Ukraine’s air force on Sunday.

This remarkable feat underscores the country’s determination to protect its territory from relentless aerial assaults.

On the Telegram messaging app, the air force revealed that Russia unleashed a barrage of missiles, including two Iskander M-ballistic missiles and one Kh-59 guided air missile, targeting the southern region of Odesa.

Fortunately, the guided air missile was intercepted and destroyed, ensuring the safety of the local population.

However, the fate of the Iskander missiles remains uncertain, with no information provided on whether they caused any damage.

This ambiguity only serves to heighten tensions, as Ukraine remains vigilant in the face of unrelenting Russian aggression.

In a stark reminder of the scale of these attacks, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy disclosed that Russia has employed an astonishing array of weaponry over the past week.

This includes approximately 30 missiles of various types, over 800 guided aerial bombs, and nearly 300 attack drones, all directed at Ukraine.

As the world watches, Ukraine stands firm, its air defenses a beacon of hope amidst the chaos.
