The Air Force reported 24 “Shaheda” shot down at night, one “entered Romanian airspace”

On the night of September 27, Russian troops attacked Ukraine with an Iskander-M/KN-23 ballistic missile from occupied Crimea, two Kh-22 cruise missiles from Tu-22M3 bombers from the Black Sea, as well as 32 Shahed-type attack UAVs (launch area: Primorsko -Akhtarsk in Russia), the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported.

“As a result of anti-aircraft combat, 24 Shahed-type attack UAVs were shot down. One unmanned aerial vehicle entered the airspace of Romania, another enemy UAV was lost in location as a result of countermeasures by the Defense Forces of Ukraine’s EW,” the message reads.

The Armed Forces added that air defense was operating in the Dnipropetrovsk, Mykolaiv and Odesa regions.

Earlier, the Odesa Regional Military Administration reported that as a result of a Russian strike in Izmail, three people were killed, and 11 more, including a child, were injured.

The Russian military regularly attacks Ukrainian regions with various types of weapons – attack UAVs, rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles.

The leadership of Russia denies that the Russian army during a full-scale war inflicts targeted strikes on the civilian infrastructure of the cities and villages of Ukraine, killing the civilian population and destroying hospitals, schools, kindergartens, energy and water supply facilities.

The Ukrainian authorities and international organizations qualify these strikes as war crimes by the Russian Federation and emphasize that they are purposeful in nature.

In Romania, it has been repeatedly reported about the fall of the wreckage of Russian drones after the strikes of the Russian Federation on Ukraine.
