Ukraine’s Defense Forces have repelled enemy attacks near six settlements today. In addition, the Ukrainian anti-aircraft defense units destroyed 32 Russian air targets across different directions.
The relevant statement was made on Facebook by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as of 06:00 p.m., October 11, 2022, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“Without achieving success, the enemy continues to launch missile strikes and use unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) in order to hit critical infrastructure and residential areas in Ukrainian cities,” the report states.
Today Russian troops have again launched a massive missile attack on Ukraine. They fired about 30 cruise missiles. In addition, the enemy launched seven air strikes and opened fire with multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) about 25 times.
