On the night of July 4, the Russians attacked Ukraine with 22 aerial targets. The forces and means of anti-aircraft defense managed to destroy 21 enemy objects.

This was announced by the commander of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Mykola Oleschuk.

It is noted that all drones were launched from the territory of the Kursk region in the Russian Federation.

The downing of drones was recorded within Kyiv, Chernihiv, Zhytomyr, Sumy, Dnipropetrovsk and Poltava regions.

Earlier, the Kyiv City Military Administration reported that none of the drones reached the capital — all of them were eliminated by stealth.

We will remind that on July 3, the Russian military shelled the Ochakivska and Snigurivska communities of the Mykolaiv region.
