Ukraine stated on Thursday it downed 17 out of twenty-two Russian drones attacking its territory in a single day within the nation’s south, centre and north.

“On the night of September 14, 2023, from 9 p.m. to 2:30 a.m., the Russian invaders attacked Ukraine with several groups of Shahed-136/131 type (drones) from three directions,” Ukraine’s air pressure stated in a publish on Telegram.

Having initially sought to pummel Ukrainian targets with missiles, Russia has this 12 months more and more turned to the Shahed, an affordable Iranian kamikaze drone which is extra expendable and might confuse air defences with its smaller measurement and low pace.
