Ukraine Air Defense Neutralizes 114 of 137 Russian Drones in Overnight Attack

Ukraine's air defense forces neutralized 114 of 137 Russian Shahed-type drones launched in a massive overnight attack, the Ukrainian Air Force reported Tuesday morning. The remaining drones that were not intercepted struck various regions of Ukraine, causing damage to infrastructure. The attack continued Russia's pattern of large-scale drone barrages targeting Ukrainian civilian and energy infrastructure. Ukrainian air defense units, including mobile fire groups and electronic warfare systems, worked throughout the night to counter the threat. No casualties were immediately reported, though authorities were still assessing damage in affected regions. Such large drone attacks have become a regular feature of the war, designed to overwhelm air defenses and strike deep into Ukrainian territory.
