The drone in question was shot down in the eastern direction on the morning of July 31. The commander of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Nikolai Oleshchuk, published a video on Telegram.
Remember that even after defeat, enemy missiles and attack UAVs pose a serious threat, he stressed.
As is known, Iranian UAVs were the first type of foreign-made weapons that the occupiers began to actively use in the war with Ukraine. According to media reports, Russia first used them in September 2022 in battles in the Kharkiv region, where their targets were Ukrainian artillery positions and MLRS. Now Russian troops are attacking civilian infrastructure rather than military ones with Iranian drones.
Let us recall that Ukrainian military nights repelled one of the most massive attacks of kamikaze drones. On the night of July 31, the Russians attacked with 89 kamikaze drones, which were launched from different directions – Yeysk, Seshch, Kursk, Primorsko-Akhtarsk. The main direction of the attack was the Kyiv region.
The Ukrainian air defense worked perfectly and managed to destroy all 89 enemy drones. Mobile fire groups of all Ukrainian defense forces, tactical aviation of the Air Force and army aviation of the Ground Forces, anti-aircraft missile units and the Air Force reconnaissance brigade were involved in repelling the air attack.
