Moscow has recently ramped up attacks on Kyiv’s Black Sea and Danube port infrastructure.
KYIV: Ukrainian defences shot down 15 Russian drones during an overnight attack, Kyiv’s air force said today.
Russian forces “attacked from the north with ‘Shahed-136/131’ attack UAVs. A total of 17 attack drones were launched from the Kursk region,” the Ukrainian force said on Telegram. “15 enemy drones were destroyed by the forces and means of the Air Force in cooperation with the air defence systems of other components of the Defence Forces of Ukraine.”
Moscow has ramped up attacks on Ukraine’s port infrastructure in the Black Sea and the Danube, since the scrapping of a deal that had allowed the safe export of grain through the shipping hub.
