None of us chose this horror. Putin did
Ukraine's Air Force reports it.
During the nighttime assault, Russian troops launched an Iskander-K cruise missile and a Kh-59 guided air missile from the occupied territories of Crimea and the Kherson region. Additionally, 20 Shahed attack drones were deployed from the Primorsko-Akhtarsk regions in the Russian Federation and Chauda in Crimea.
Anti-aircraft missile units and mobile fire groups from the Air Force and Defense Forces of Ukraine were engaged in repelling the air attack.
Consequently, 20 Shahed drones and one Kh-59 guided air missile were successfully downed, preventing the Iskander-K cruise missile from reaching its target.
The air targets were eliminated within the Odesa, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Khmelnytskyi regions.
