Russian troops massively attack Ukraine with drones
Russian troops have stepped up night attacks with kamikaze drones on the territory of Ukraine. According to the speaker of the Defense Forces of the South of Ukraine, Natalia Gumenyuk, UAV strikes are carried out at night not only because of the difficulties in air defense. Thus, the occupiers also want to deplete the civilian population.
It is also reported that such attacks are a test for the economy of the Ukrainian regions, because the enemy hits those areas that are designed to ensure the ability of Ukrainian defenders to hold the line and launch an offensive.
In particular, on the night of May 19, the invaders tried to attack our country with the help of 22 Shahed kamikaze drones and six Caliber cruise missiles. Most of them were shot down.
