⚡️ KH-59 MISSILE and 89 ATTACK UAVS SHOT DOWN

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖

On the night of July 31, 2024, the enemy attacked with a Kh-59 guided air missile from the airspace of the occupied Kherson region and 89 strike UAVs of the "Shahed" type from the Yeisk, Seshcha, Kursk, Primorsko-Akhtarsk regions. The main direction of the attack is Kyiv region!

❗️ This is one of the most massive attacks by the "Shahed-131/136" UAVs. The enemy used the same number of "shaheds" on New Year's Eve, January 1, 2024. As then, today Ukrainian air defenses withstood and repelled a massive attack by enemy drones.

💥 All 89 of the 89 "Shahed-131/136" strike UAVs detected by the radar units of the Air Force were shot down!

Mobile fire groups of all Defense Forces of Ukraine, tactical aviation of the Air Force and army aviation of the Ground Forces, anti-aircraft missile units and EW of the Air Force were involved in repelling the air attack. The Kh-59 guided air missile was also shot down, with which the enemy attacked Mykolaiv Oblast.

Thank you to all the defenders of the sky for the combat work and the telling result!

🇺🇦 Together to victory!

That's an insane amount of drones, and an awesome job by the Ukrainian air defenses
