In a significant defense effort, Ukraine's air force successfully intercepted 22 of the 28 drones deployed by Russia overnight, according to a statement made on Tuesday.
The air force reported, through the Telegram messaging app, that two drones journeyed beyond Ukraine-controlled airspace, and one drone was declared 'lost.'
Regrettably, several drones managed to hit critical infrastructure targets within Ukraine's western Ternopil and Rivne regions, heightening concerns over ongoing hostilities.
