RBC Ukraine

Enemy drones attacked Ukraine on the night of 6 March.

The statement was made by air force spokesman Yuriy Ignat on the air of the national news marathon.

According to Ignat, Russia fired 15 Shaked kamikaze drones at Ukraine on the night of 6 March. Ukrainian air defence forces were able to shoot down 13 of them.

The drones were launched from the northern direction. They were Iranian-made Shaked-136 type kamikaze drones. 15 were launched and 13 of them were destroyed by the anti-aircraft defence, various fire weapons.

Ignat considers this result to be "pretty good".

It is worth recalling that the occupiers have recently changed their tactics of shelling Ukrainian territories. First, they release drones to detect weak points of our air defence. And then they attack Ukraine with missiles.
