CinC Syrskyi orders new push to defend Ukrainian cities from nightly drone terror
As reported by Ukrinform, Syrskyi announced this on Facebook.
He held a working meeting focused on countering enemy strike UAVs, which Russia uses nightly to target Ukrainian cities.
“Priority number one is to scale up and expand systems that are already proving effective,” emphasized the Commander-in-Chief.
Most importantly, the general noted, this means increasing the number of drone-interceptor UAVs.
According to him, “we need a comprehensive approach that leverages the capabilities of all available components.”
“The enemy is constantly modifying the characteristics of its Shahed drones and changing its tactics. We discussed ways to improve detection of enemy drones and ensure their timely destruction,” Syrskyi added.
The Commander-in-Chief reported that he has “assigned specific tasks and identified priority directions. People's lives, the functioning of critical infrastructure, and the national economy all depend on this.”
He also thanked everyone working on drone-interceptor solutions, helping to implement and scale them, and training new operators.
As Ukrinform previously reported, the Cabinet of Ministers has approved an experimental project aimed at strengthening air defense by involving volunteer formations from territorial communities.
