Russian forces launched 99 drones towards Ukraine from six different directions. The Ukrainian air defense forces shot down most of the enemy UAVs, the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports.

Russia’s military on Tuesday said it would retaliate against Ukraine after Kyiv attacked Russian regions by firing six US-made ATACMS ballistic missiles, six UK-made Storm Shadow cruise missiles and launching one of the biggest drone attacks to date.

Russia and Ukraine exchanged large drone attacks on Sunday night into Monday, with alleged Ukrainian UAVs forcing flight restrictions at three Russian airports.

Ukraine struck Russian regions with a major drone and missile attack overnight, damaging at least two factories and forcing schools to close in a major southern Russian city, according to Russian officials and media.

The barrage appeared to be one of the largest recent assaults in Ukraine’s campaign to damage Russia’s war machine on its home territory.

The Russian Defense Ministry said that Ukraine launched six ATACMS missiles overnight at the Bryansk region, but that all of them were downed by air defenses. The ministry also said that 146 Ukrainian drones had been shot down outside the conflict zone over the last day.
