Thousands of Shaheds Did Not Reach Their Targets: Ten November Days of Fighting for the Skies

Ten days and ten nights of air raid alerts. From 1st to 10th November, the russian army launched 3,519 Shahed, Gerbera and Parodya-type attack UAVs against Ukraine. Each one was heading towards someone’s home, hospitals and schools, and the energy infrastructure that provides electricity and heating to millions of Ukrainians. The Defence Forces neutralised 3,068 of them.

Thousands of these drones never reached their targets.

The enemy is changing its tactics and increasingly deploying jet-powered UAVs, which are faster and more dangerous. Over these ten days, almost every second drone was of this type – 1,695 in total. Ukraine’s air defenders neutralised 1,406 of them.

Ukraine’s air defence is becoming even more effective against conventional Shahed drones. Of the 1,824 launched, 1,662 were neutralised.

The russian aggressor is looking for new ways to break through our defences, but the Defence Forces continue to improve their capabilities every day. They are introducing new countermeasures, strengthening their capabilities and working to ensure that as few enemy drones as possible reach their targets.

We are grateful to everyone defending Ukraine’s skies.

Glory to Ukraine!
