Russian air defense systems shot down 175 Ukrainian drones over Russian regions overnight, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Saturday.
"During the past night (from 20:00 Moscow time on June 26 to 8:00 Moscow time on June 27), 175 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles of an airplane type were intercepted and destroyed by air defense systems on duty," the ministry said in a statement.
Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously noted that Ukrainian forces are sending hundreds of drones to strike Russian territory. He emphasised that the Kiev regime is deliberately targeting civilians in the regions, attacking civilian infrastructure and transport, including ambulances and agricultural machinery. The head of state described the methods used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces and Kiev's foreign mercenaries as terrorist.
