Yuriy Ihnat, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force, made the statement on the United News telethon.
According to him, all 17 Shaheds were shot down along the route.
"Khmelnytskyi region was attacked again. It is clear what the enemy is looking for - they are looking for where the commander hid our bombers after the events that took place recently in our sea near Crimea," Ihnat emphasized.
He also noted that during the morning attack, Russian troops slightly shifted the time of launches.
"They usually launch from 10:30 pm to 10:50 pm. Then several waves - up to 04:00 am. The morning attack allows mobile fire groups to practice better. When it is daylight, the target becomes visually visible," added the Air Force spokesman.
