On the night of October 12, 2023, Ukraine’s air defense units downed 28 Shahed-type loitering munitions fired by Russian invaders.
The relevant statement was made by the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Telegram, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“The enemy attacked Ukraine’s territory with Shahed-type combat drones from the northern and southern directions (Russia’s Belgorod region and the temporarily occupied Crimea’s Chauda Cape),” the Air Force noted, adding that a total of 33 Shahed drones were launched.
The air defense units were working across at least six regions of Ukraine. Aircraft, surface-to-air missile forces, mobile fire teams, and electronic warfare units contributed to repelling the Russian air attack.
Twenty-eight out of 33 enemy loitering munitions were intercepted.
