''The Ukrainian Armed Forces do not have enough air defence systems to counter Russian air strikes,'' Nataliya Humenyuk, spokeswoman for the Ukrainian Defence Forces South, said on Monday.In August, Yuriy Ignat, an adviser to the Ukrainian air force command, said that their air defences had never managed to shoot down Russian Kh-22 missiles.Moreover, he previously stated that Russian missiles possess exceptional agility, rendering it arduous for Ukrainian air defense systems to detect their altered trajectories.Just two days after the orchestrated explosion of the Crimean Bridge by Ukrainian intelligence services, the Russian forces retaliated with a fierce missile attack on targets in Ukraine on October 10, 2022.The attacks targeted energy, defence, military administration and communications facilities across the country. As a result, a daily air alert was declared in Ukrainian regions, and occasionally at the national level.

'Our Air Defense No Match For Russian Strikes': Ukrainian Defence Forces
19:20 09.10.2023 (Updated: 13:40 10.10.2023) In the absence of adequate air defence capabilities, the Ukrainian military is struggling to defend itself against precise Russian air strikes.
''The Ukrainian Armed Forces do not have enough air defence systems to counter Russian air strikes,'' Nataliya Humenyuk, spokeswoman for the Ukrainian Defence Forces South, said on Monday.
"They [the Russian military] understand that we do not have adequate means to respond to bombings, in particular, there are not enough air defence forces. And there are no fighter jets that can eliminate the planes that are releasing these bombs," she said.
In August, Yuriy Ignat, an adviser to the Ukrainian air force command, said that their air defences had never managed to shoot down Russian Kh-22 missiles.
Moreover, he previously stated that Russian missiles possess
exceptional agility, rendering it arduous for Ukrainian air defense systems to detect their altered trajectories.
Just two days after the
orchestrated explosion of the Crimean Bridge by Ukrainian intelligence services, the Russian forces retaliated with a fierce missile attack on targets in Ukraine on October 10, 2022.
The attacks targeted energy, defence, military administration and communications facilities across the country. As a result, a daily air alert was declared in Ukrainian regions, and occasionally at the national level.
