On the night of October 10 (from 19.00 09.10 to 10.00 10.10) Russian invaders attacked Ukraine with attack UAVs and missiles of various types.
In total, the radio engineering troops of the Air Force detected and escorted more than fifty enemy air attack weapons:
- two Iskander-M ballistic missiles (launch area – TOT Crimea);
- guided aircraft missile Kh-31P (from Crimean airspace);
- two X-59/69 guided aircraft missiles (from Crimean airspace);
- three S-300 anti-aircraft guided missiles (from occupied Donbass);
- 62 attack UAVs (launch areas – Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Kursk – Russian Federation).
The air attack was repelled by aviation, anti-aircraft missile forces, electronic warfare units and mobile fire groups of the Air Force and the Defense Forces of Ukraine.
As a result of anti-aircraft combat, 41 enemy UAVs were shot down in Nikolaev, Odessa, Kherson, Kyiv, Cherkassy, Dnepropetrovsk, Sumy, Poltava, Zaporozhye and Donetsk regions.
14 enemy drones were locally lost in different regions of Ukraine, presumably as a result of active counteraction to electronic warfare. The information is being clarified.
As of 11:00 on October 10, combat work continued. Several UAVs (probably attack ones) were in Ukrainian airspace. There was also a lot of reconnaissance drone activity in the north and south.
“Rakurs” reported that as a result of a Russian strike by missiles and attack UAVs, civilian objects and critical infrastructure facilities in Odessa, Poltava and Donbass were hit.
