Air Force spokesman Yuriy Ihnat says the Ukrainian Armed Forces have shot down over 630 enemy 'kamikaze' drones since the beginning of September

He said this on Espreso TV. 

“The occupying forces did not change their tactics in yesterday's attack with 'kamikaze' drones. The only thing that has changed is that they attacked the territory of Ukraine from the northern direction. This time a large number of drones were destroyed. However, unfortunately, not all of them. The Air Force managed to destroy 11 out of 14 UAVs. Unfortunately, the latest attack resulted in deaths,” said Ihnat.

The Air Force spokesman emphasized that the occupying Russian forces have not changed their tactics of using missiles and 'kamikaze' drones.

“The invaders do not change their tactics of using missiles and 'kamikaze' drones. Our energy system has been under attack for a long time. During this time, the occupiers have used hundreds of drones. However, our Air Force has shown excellent results. In particular, since September 11, 2022, the Air Force has destroyed more than 630 'kamikaze' drones used by the enemy to attack Ukraine,” he added.
