Russian air defense destroys 28 Ukrainian drones

Moscow, Oct 18 (Prensa Latina) Russian air defense systems destroyed some 28 drones over the Belgorod and Kursk regions and the Black Sea, the Ministry of Defense reported on Wednesday.

“Overnight, an attempt by Kiev to carry out a terrorist attack on objects on the territory of Russia using aircraft-type UAVs was stopped, and all 28 devices were intercepted,” the military institution assured.

Russia’s Belgorod Region Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov, in turn, denounced via telegram that in the last 24 hours, the Ukrainian army fired 20 munitions at the border areas, and eight Ukrainian drones were shot down.

Russian provinces bordering Ukraine, such as Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh, regularly report shelling, drone strikes, and other attacks from across the border, forcing the population to seek refuge elsewhere.
