The enemy launched a record number of Shahed drones and UAVs of unspecified type from Russia’s Oryol, Bryansk, Kursk and Primorsko-Akhtarsk during the nighttime attack."

As of 09:00, air defence forces had downed 76 Russian drones within Kyiv, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Poltava, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, Vinnytsia, Chernivtsi, Ternopil, Rivne, Zaporizhzhia, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa and Mykolaiv oblasts.
A total of 95 drones disappeared from radar, likely due to the defence forces’ active EW measures, while five UAVs flew towards Belarus.
