President: Air defenses downed over 90% of aerial targets in Russian night attack
During a massive nighttime attack, Ukrainian air defenses destroyed more than 90% of aerial targets; however, defense against ballistic missiles remains the most vulnerable area.
President Volodymyr Zelensky made this statement during a televised address, according to Ukrinform.
“We are currently aware of 666 aerial targets, of which over 610 have been destroyed. That is, the destruction rate is over 90%,” Zelensky said.
He emphasized that countering ballistic missiles remains the main challenge.
According to him, Russian forces have traditionally targeted energy, logistics, and railway facilities, as well as residential areas—hits on high-rise buildings have been recorded.
As reported by Ukrinform, on the night of April 25, Russian troops carried out a massive combined attack on the city of Dnipro. Three deaths have been reported so far.
