Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced a significant increase in the effectiveness of interceptor drones.

According to Ukrinform, he stated this on Facebook.

He said that "almost every night, our defenders of the sky are working to repel Russian attacks. Together with electronic warfare units, army aviation, and mobile fire groups, the results of interceptor drones are already significantly increasing – more than 150 since the beginning of the month already, including shootdowns tonight. And there will be more."

Zelensky emphasized that "we will definitely continue to develop interceptor drone technology and train crews. The Ministry of Defense is contracting all available production capacity for interceptors."

He also noted that Ukraine is working on closer cooperation with partners, and that "joint production and financing will let us scale this up faster," expressing gratitude to everyone contributing to the development of this area.
