💥 Fighter aircraft, anti-aircraft missile forces of the Air Force, mobile fire groups and electronic warfare units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine were involved in repelling the enemy’s air attack.

As a result of anti-aircraft combat, 59 air targets were destroyed:

The enemy continues to attack the critical infrastructure of Ukraine and other important strategic objects. I thank everyone who today made every effort to prevent the enemy from achieving his goals.

Today, May 8, Ukraine celebrates the Day of Remembrance and Victory over Nazism in the Second World War. We honor the fallen of that terrible war, we honor the Ukrainian heroes of our time, who this time are defending their native land from racism!
