Ukraine faced another major overnight assault as Russia launched 159 drones and missiles, according to the Ukrainian Air Force. The military said on Saturday that 128 of those incoming targets were repelled.
The figures point to a large-scale aerial attack carried out during the night, with Ukrainian air defenses again playing a central role in limiting the impact. The latest update adds to a pattern of repeated drone and missile strikes targeting the country.
Based on the Air Force statement, dozens of weapons were intercepted before reaching their targets, though not all of the incoming drones and missiles were stopped. The report did not provide further detail in the available snippet about the remaining projectiles or the areas affected.
The overnight barrage underscores the continued intensity of Russia's aerial campaign against Ukraine, with drone and missile attacks remaining a key feature of the war. Ukrainian military updates on interceptions and incoming threats continue to be closely watched as the conflict grinds on.
