F-16s shot down 34 out of 35 missiles during today's attack by the aggressor country of the russian federation. This was reported by the head of the communications department of the Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Yurii Ihnat, on the air of Kyiv24.
"The effectiveness of the air defense is extremely high, because Kinzhal missiles, although not intercepted by the Patriot air defense system, did not reach their targets. For this we thank our valiant pilots," he said.
According to Ihnat, our air defense has zonal-object cover.
"We can cover critical infrastructure facilities, cities, troops on important areas of the front, but even so there will be "holes" that the enemy uses for overflights," he added.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the military of the aggressor country of russia launched over 650 drones and more than three dozen missiles at Ukraine. At least 13 regions were hit. There are casualties among the civilian population.
