This was reported by the Air Force Command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The attack was repelled by anti-aircraft missile units of the Air Force and mobile fire groups of the Defense Forces. A total of 14 “martyrs” were shot down in the Nikolaev and Odessa regions.
In addition, at about 20:00 on April 9, two X-59 guided aircraft missiles, with which the enemy attacked Odessa, were destroyed. < /p>
The Commander of the Air Force, Lieutenant General Nikolai Oleshchuk, thanked all units for their work.
- The Russians continue their tactics of air terror, trying to destroy the critical infrastructure of Ukraine. In addition, the enemy’s goal is to identify mobile fire groups and launch Ukrainian air defense missiles. At the same time, mobile fire groups demonstrate good results – 100% of air targets were recently repelled. At the same time, the enemy continues to conduct so-called harassing fire in order to prevent the Defense Forces from having time to prepare effectively.
