KYIV, Ukraine, Feb 11, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Ukraine said it destroyed most of the
45 attack drones launched by Russia overnight, with little damage reported on
Sunday morning.
The announcement comes a day after authorities announced seven killed in a
Russian attack that set a petrol station ablaze in Ukraine's second biggest
city, Kharkiv.
"Overnight the occupiers launched 45 attack drones... As a result of combat
work, 40 enemy Shahed (UAV) were destroyed," the Ukrainian air force said on
Telegram.
Falling debris lightly wounded a 39-year-old man in the southern region of
Dnipro, governor Sergiy Lysak said.
Authorities from the capital Kyiv and the central Cherkasy region said there
was preliminary no damage.
But aerial guided bombs targeted the village of Vodyane, in the Kharkiv
region, killing a 56-year-old woman, governor Synegubov said.
The day before, his region had seen seven killed after a Russian drone attack
hit a petrol station, spilling burning fuel down the neighbouring street.
