Russian air attacks on Ukraine
Russian occupiers this night again staged an air attack on the territory of Ukraine. This happened after yesterday’s strikes with the use of “Shaheds” and missiles. Then, at first, explosions were reported in Kherson, and later in Nikolaev – they announced the work of air defense there. After that, a series of explosions thundered in Odessa.
All data on the consequences of yesterday’s night air attack is in the material of RBC-Ukraine.
We also recall that before that, on the night of July 15, Russian troops once again tried to attack the south of Ukraine with kamikaze drones. Air defense forces worked, but there were also hits. The Russian army then released Shahed-type kamikaze drones.
