This was reported on national television by the grouping’s spokesperson, Vadym Mysnyk, Ukrinform saw.

"If we specifically take the aviation component, the enemy does not stop employing guided aerial bombs. But we see that weather conditions have deteriorated somewhat, so there is a certain decrease in the use of FPV drones and UAV explosive payload drops, albeit insignificant. We have also seen a significant decrease in the use of attack drones over the past 24 hours; they were not recorded in the evening and overnight," Mysnyk said.
