The Russian Defense Ministry's spokesperson Igor Konashenkov said on Sunday that almost 1,000 Ukrainian UAVs have been destroyed since the start of the war.
Konashenkov explained that since the beginning of the conflict with Ukraine, the Russian armed forces destroyed 174 planes, 125 helicopters, 977 unmanned aerial vehicles, 317 anti-aircraft missile systems, 3,198 tanks, and other armored combat vehicles, 408 multiple launch rocket systems, 1,622 field artillery guns and mortars, as well as 3,077 units of special military vehicles.
The spokesperson said that the Russian air forces hit 26 hubs overnight and destroyed three control centers and an ammunition storage facility. Russia also launched high-precision missiles that hit 13 personnel and military hubs and destroyed four ammunition depots.
