Lets continue with the general events. The morning started with a large Russian missiles and drone attack. Dozens of Shahed drones and missiles were heading for Ukraine. Several regions were affected. The scale of the attack was not fully known right away
By the end of the day the Air Force came with an update. 236 (!) missiles/drones were fired out of which 201 were shot down. Good work by Ukrainian air defense.
