He noted that only 9 UAVs were shot down by the air defense forces (air defense), the rest were suppressed by electronic warfare (EW).
“I state that destroying 42 devices is not an easy task. I am sure that this is not the limit of our abilities. I think we can put pressure on large drone swarms as well. The Russian armed forces from time to time thwart the plans of the enemy. With the help of massive drone attacks, Ukraine hopes to break through our defenses and inflict maximum damage not only to military installations on the peninsula, but also to civilian ones, ”said Knutov.
