Kyiv: The Ukrainian Air Force announced Monday that it shot down 113 drones launched by Russia last night, while 71 others disappeared from the radar track. The Ukrainian Air Force said in a statement that Russia attacked Ukrainian airspace overnight using 184 drones, targeting several areas including Kharkiv, Poltava, Sumy, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, Khmelnytskyi, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Kherson, and Dnipropetrovsk, pointing out that its defenses were able to shoot down 113 of those aircraft, while 71 others disappeared from radar screens.

According to Qatar News Agency, Russia and Ukraine almost daily announce the downing of some drones, while it is difficult to verify the accuracy of this information due to the circumstances of ongoing war conditions, which made it difficult to access combat areas and verify data.
