Russia destroys 125 Ukrainian drones
Russia has destroyed no fewer than 125 Ukrainian drones over its territory.
The Ukrainian Defence Ministry revealed this on Sunday, with regional governors reporting some damage but no casualties from the attack.
In a post on its Telegram, the ministry said 125 Ukrainian fixed-wing UAVs were destroyed and intercepted by air defence systems on duty.
It said that sixty-seven were destroyed over the Volgograd region in southern Russia, where governor Andrey Bocharov said falling debris from the drones sparked grass fires but no casualties or damage.
The ministry added that another 17 were downed over the Belgorod region and 17 over the Voronezh region, where governor Aleksandr Gusev said several fell on Voronezh city and its suburbs causing fires in two residential buildings but no casualties.
Governor Vasily Golubev said on Telegram that another 18 drones were destroyed over the Rostov region.
According to operational information, there are no casualties or damage on the ground.
Russia has recently announced shooting down Ukrainian drones almost daily in response to what Kyiv says are retaliatory strikes for Russian attacks during its offensive launched in February 2022.
