Ukrainian Air Defense Forces destroy about a dozen drones on the outskirts of Kyiv

On the night of November 18, the Russian terrorist army attempted to attack Kyiv with Shahed kamikaze drones. On the outskirts of the Ukrainian capital, air defense forces managed to shoot down about 10 UAVs.

According to preliminary data, the enemy attack on the capital ended without casualties or damage. This was reported by the Kyiv City Regional Military Administration on Telegram.

Russian troops launched attack drones from the south, but the UAVs entered Kyiv from the north. However, the complex routes and maneuvers of almost 1,000 kilometers did not prevent the air defense forces from succeeding.

On the outskirts of the Ukrainian capital, the defenders destroyed about ten attack drones. According to preliminary reports, there were no casualties or damage.

The air raid alert related to the UAV attacks lasted more than an hour in Kyiv, from 00:17 to 01:21. The command of the Ukrainian Air Force stated that the drones tried to attack the capital from the north. According to monitoring channels, about a dozen UAVs entered Kyiv from the Chernihiv region.

As a reminder, on the night of November 17, Ukrainian air defense shot down nine out of ten drones. The targets changed course and were neutralized on their way from the southern to the western regions.

Earlier, it was reported that Ukraine's defenders have learned to shoot down Russian Shahed kamikaze drones of Iranian design both day and night. The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine released a new video of the combat work of mobile air defense fire groups.

As reported by OBOZ.UA, the terrorist state Russia continues to build a plant for the production of Shahed kamikaze attack drones in the Republic of Tatarstan. The invaders are planning to launch a mass production of UAVs to use them to strike at Ukraine's energy infrastructure.
