Ukraine's Air Force reported Tuesday that its defenses destroyed or neutralized 135 Russian unmanned aerial vehicles overnight, 70 of them Shahed-type jet-powered drones. Russia fired 162 drones in total, meaning 27 went unaccounted for in the military's tally.
The launch included 96 Shahed-type jet-powered UAVs along with Gerbera and Parodiya decoy drones, according to the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. They came from Russia's Bryansk, Orel, Shatalovo, Millerovo and Gvardiyske in Crimea. Russia also fired one Iskander-M ballistic missile from Millerovo.
By 7:30 am local time, strikes had hit 19 locations, and debris fell at nine others, the military said. The air attack was repelled by aviation, anti-aircraft missile troops, electronic warfare and unmanned systems units, and mobile fire groups, according to the Air Force.
The decoy drones — Gerbera and Parodiya — are typically used alongside strike drones to stretch air defenses, a pattern that showed up again in this wave alongside the ballistic missile launch.
