Ukraine downs 118 of 135 Russian drones in ongoing attack, some strikes recorded

Ukraine's air defense forces repelled a significant Russian aerial assault, intercepting 118 out of 135 drones launched against the country. While the majority of the unmanned aerial vehicles were downed, some strikes still managed to hit their targets, indicating the persistence of the attack.

The large-scale drone deployment underscores the continued intensity of the aerial conflict. Ukraine's ability to neutralize over 87% of the incoming threats demonstrates the effectiveness of its air defense systems, yet the recorded strikes highlight the ongoing risks and damage Russia's attacks can inflict.

Details on the specific targets and the extent of damage from the successful strikes were not immediately available, but the ongoing nature of the attack suggests a dynamic and dangerous situation on the ground. The incident is part of the broader, sustained military operations between Russia and Ukraine.
