Russian forces launched 11 Iskander-M ballistic missiles and 149 strike drones at Ukraine overnight into Monday, with some missiles and 23 drones hitting targets at 15 locations, Ukraine’s Air Force reported.
The ballistic missiles were fired from Russia’s Bryansk Oblast. The drones — including Shahed, Gerbera, Italmas and other types, with about 90 Shaheds — were launched from Kursk, Oryol, Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Bryansk and Shatalovo in Russia, as well as Hvardiyske in temporarily occupied Crimea and occupied Donetsk.
