Russian shelling
Russian invaders regularly try to attack Ukraine with strike drones and missiles. In particular, for its attacks, the enemy uses Kinzhal hypersonic missiles launched from MiG-31K fighters.
Ukrainian defenders manage to shoot down such missiles with the help of Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems. For example, in May, during one of these attacks, seven “Daggers” were destroyed at once.
