Ukrainian air defences destroyed 130 out of 178 drones launched by Russia during its latest overnight strike, Kyiv’s air force says.
It adds that another 38 drones had been “locationally lost,” typically a reference to electronic jamming, and that Russian forces had also fired two ballistic missiles.
Ukraine’s largest private energy provider says that overnight Russian air strikes damaged its energy facilities in the Dnipropetrovsk and Odesa regions.
In a statement, DTEK said “damages are significant” and that some consumers in both regions were left without power.
Russia also says it downed 126 Ukrainian drones overnight, mostly over its southern Volgograd and Voronezh regions, after Moscow rejected an immediate ceasefire proposed by the United States.
