Air defense downs 39 Ukrainian drones over six Russian regions

Moscow, Jun 27 (Prensa Latina) Air defense operational systems intercepted and shot down 39 Ukrainian attack drones that targeted six Russian southwestern regions, the Defense Ministry reported on Friday.

The military institution announced on its official Telegram channel that 19 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were shot down over the Rostov region, 13 over the Volgograd region, four over the Peninsula of Crimea, and the remaining three over the Belgorod, Bryansk, and Samara regions.

Samara Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev previously informed a failed drone attack on an industrial enterprise in Novokuybyshevsk.

Volgograd Governor Andrey Bocharov denounced a massive drone attack on the Volzhsky city and three other municipalities.

Bocharov stated that the falling fragments of a drone forced temporary traffic restrictions on a bridge over the Don River in the Kalashevsky municipality.

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