Air raid sirens had been sounding across the nation earlier as a result of a number of attacks.

When Ukraine’s Air Force Command reported that it had shot down 61 of the 71 missiles fired by Russia on Friday.

“The enemy attacked from the air using eight Tu-95MS strategic bombers that launched Kh-101 and Kh-555 missiles from Volgodonsk and the Caspian Sea area,” the Air Force said in a statement. “The enemy also attacked with Kalibr-type sea-based cruise missiles from ships in the Black Sea.”

Additionally, according to the Ukrainian military, Russia fired about 35 S-300 missiles against the cities of Zaporizhzhia in the south and Kharkiv in the northeast. S-300 is a surface-to-air missile, but Russia uses it to launch ground attacks.

The military also asserted that five Shahed drones of Iranian manufacture were destroyed overnight.
