Ukraine is facing an attack by Russian Shahed drones of Iranian design. Shortly after the air alert was announced, explosions were heard in Kropyvnytskyi, the administrative center of the Kirovohrad region in the central part of the country, the RBK Ukraine server reported. He noted that the explosions could be the work of anti-aircraft defenses and could reflect an enemy attack.
The headquarters of the Ukrainian Air Force, which includes air defense, warned before the airstrike that enemy drones were approaching the Kirovohrad region. This was followed by a warning that the drones were already near the town of Kropyvnyckyj. And then the warning that a second wave of drones is approaching, heading towards the city of Kremenchuk, which is also in the central part of Ukraine in the Poltava region.
Russian drones are coming from the south. An air alert was initially declared in the Kherson, Mykolaiv, Kirovohrad and Zaporozhye regions. The drones also flew further north and northwest, the newspaper Ukrainska pravda reported on its website.
Air alert has also been declared in other regions, where people should stay in shelters until the danger passes, the RBK Ukraine server wrote, reminding that the ban on publishing images and footage of air defense activities is in effect.
