Russian air defense systems intercepted and destroyed 29 Ukrainian fixed-wing drones overnight, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported on Saturday.

According to the ministry, the unmanned aerial vehicles were shot down over the Moscow region and the Rostov, Tula, Bryansk and Belgorod regions, as well as over the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea.

The overnight interception of 29 UAVs marked one of the smallest Ukrainian drone attack attempts against Russia in recent times. Just a day earlier, Ukrainian forces had deployed a record 1,198 drones, which were also detected and successfully destroyed by Russian air defense units.

Ukrainian forces continue attempting daily drone attacks against Russian regions and civilian infrastructure. The vast majority of the attacking UAVs are intercepted by Russian air defense personnel.

In response to Ukrainian drone raids, the Russian military carries out precision strikes against Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, defense industry facilities and military logistics networks.
