Kiev [Ukraine], December 13: Several parts of Ukraine have again been attacked by Russia with combat drones, Kiev's military reported on Tuesday morning.
The Ukrainian air force said that 15 launches of Iranian-made Shahed drones were recorded overnight.
The military said that the drones were launched from near Balaklava on the Crimean peninsula, which has been annexed by Russia. Nine explosive-laden drones were shot down over various parts of Ukraine. In addition, two cruise missiles were intercepted over the Zaporizhzhya and Dnipropetrovsk regions on Monday evening.
Little major damage was reported. According to the military in southern Ukraine, a sports facility was damaged in the Odessa region.
The Russian army continued firing on the region until the early hours of the morning. The local authorities reported that two men were wounded by the strikes in the early morning in the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson.
The Russian army has been firing at targets in Ukraine from the air almost every night since February 2022, when it launched a full-scale invasion of the country.
