Russia-Ukraine War / Russia launched a big attack on Ukraine, fired 479 drones in one night; caused devastation

Russia-Ukraine War: The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine is becoming more horrific day by day. In recent days, Russia has increased both the intensity and scope of the attacks. In this sequence, on Monday, the Ukrainian Air Force claimed that Russia has carried out the biggest drone attack ever. This attack is being described as unprecedented not only because of its quantity but also because of its scope and impact.

Attack with 479 drones in one night

According to the Ukrainian Air Force, Russia fired 479 drones and 20 different types of missiles in a single night. Most of these attacks were focused on the central and western parts of Ukraine. This stormy attack of drones and missiles turned out to be a big challenge for the country's air defense system.

Claim of Ukrainian Air Force

The Ukrainian Air Force said that they shot down 277 drones and 19 missiles in flight. This claim, if true, is a remarkable indication of the capability of Ukraine's air defense. However, about 10 drones or missiles managed to reach their targets. These claims could not be independently confirmed.

Common citizens again become target

Russia's attacks usually take place in the dark of night, making it difficult to detect drones and missiles. Due to this strategy, civilian areas are being repeatedly targeted. According to United Nations data, so far more than 12,000 Ukrainian citizens have lost their lives in these attacks.

Russia's side

Russia has been denying these allegations. It says that its attacks are focused only on military bases and strategic structures. However, ground reports and reports of international agencies have been raising questions on these claims.
