The Russian invaders fired a rocket along the Dnieper
In the Dnieper and Lyubimov communities in the Dnepropetrovsk region, 12 people were injured as a result of falling enemy missile debris on Sunday, including a 15-year-old boy who suffered shrapnel and concussion injuries. In the Dnieper, 33 private houses were damaged, 10 cars and a forklift were damaged.
Iran launched a massive attack on Israel overnight
Iran fired more than 300 drones and missiles at Israel on Sunday night. 99% of them are blocked. In particular, Iran has launched 170 drones at Israel, and not a single one has invaded Israeli airspace. They were all shot outside the country by Israel itself and its allies. Iran also fired 30 cruise missiles, 25 of which were shot down by the Israeli Air Force.
Tehran called the massive strike on Israel “successful” and that it led to the “fulfillment of the goals set by the Iranian command.” The Chief of the General Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, Major General Mohammad Bagheri, said that the strike was concentrated on a “large information center”, as well as the Nevatim air base, where the F-35 aircraft that allegedly attacked the Iranian embassy in Syrian Damascus on April 1 is based.
The White House cited Israel’s successful effort to repel a massive Iranian attack using drones and missiles. White House National Security Council Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby said Israel’s air defense against “several hundred drones and missiles in a matter of hours” shows that Iran “is not the military power it wants to be. be.”
The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Western politicians strongly condemned Iran’s massive attack against Israel. The Ukrainian department noted that “such actions are completely unacceptable, irresponsible and pose the risk of an unprecedented further development of the situation in the Middle East.”
