    The Commander of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Nikolai Oleshchuk, announced this today, April 19, in the morning on his Telegram channel.

    For the first time, anti-aircraft missile units of the Air Force, in cooperation with the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, destroyed a long-range strategic bomber Tu-22M3 – a carrier of Kh-22 cruise missiles, which Russian terrorists use to attack peaceful Ukrainian cities, noted Oleshchuk.

    In addition, in repelling today’s Russian missile attack, two X-22 missiles were destroyed for the first time.

    Ukraine needs more funds, more missiles to better protect front-line territories from Russian terrorism,” Oleschuk emphasizes.

    In total, the Russians attacked Ukraine overnight using 36 air attacks:

    • two X-101/X-555 cruise missiles from Tu-95 MS strategic aviation aircraft (Ryazan launch area, Russian Federation);
    • 14 attack UAVs of the “Shahed-131/136” type (from the regions of Primorsko-Akhtarsk (Krasnodar region of Russia) and Kursk region of Russia);
    • 12 X-59/X-69 guided aircraft missiles (launch area Kursk region and the Azov Sea);
    • two Iskander-K cruise missiles (from occupied Crimea);
    • six X-22 cruise missiles from Tu-22M3 long-range strategic bombers (from the Black and Azov Seas).

    Anti-aircraft missile forces of the Air Force, mobile fire groups and electronic warfare units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces were involved in repelling the enemy’s air attack, Oleshchuk noted.

    As a result of the anti-aircraft battle, 29 air targets were destroyed:

    • two X-101/X-555 cruise missiles;
    • 14 attack UAVs of the “Shahed-131/136” type;
    • 11 guided aircraft missiles Kh-59/Kh-69;
    • two X-22 cruise missiles.
