Russian air defense forces executed a massive counter-aerial operation over a 24-hour period, shooting down 970 Ukrainian fixed-wing drones, 10 guided aerial bombs, and four HIMARS artillery rockets, according to official statements from the Russian Defense Ministry. Moscow reported that the wide-scale interception campaign aimed to neutralize Kyiv’s expanding long-range drone strikes targeting critical military, transport, and energy infrastructure across several border regions. The intensified defensive barrage coincided with reports of cross-border drone strikes, including an attack on Russia's Belgorod region that resulted in local casualties and structural damage. #russia #ukraine #airdefense #dronewarfare #breakingnews #worldnews #topnews #himars #militarynews #usnews #ctvnews #geopolitics In this Times Now World News report, we break down the this topic: Stay connected with Times Now World for real-time global news and analysis: 🌐 Read full coverage: https://www.timesnow
