Russian occupiers in southern Ukraine are increasingly using kamikaze drones and the 'Molniya' and 'Molniya-2' munitions. The number of drones has already reached 750-780 units, and the loitering munitions have an extended range of damage.



The enemy especially often uses 'Molniya' in the Dnipro direction and in the Zaporizhia region, trying to disrupt the movement of vehicles and rearward objects. The defense forces destroy up to 50 enemy objects and unmanned aerial vehicles daily.



Vladyslav Voloshyn: 'Every day, approximately one and a half to two dozen such loitering munitions of the type 'Molniya', 'Molniya-2' are used against us in the directions. The Armed Forces of Ukraine actively destroy the enemy in the south. Daily, the enemy suffers losses of about 70-80 personnel, about fifty units of weapons and military equipment.'


The Ukrainian armed forces are facing an increasing activity of Russian occupiers in the south of the country. The enemy is using more and more kamikaze drones and 'Molniya' munitions, but the Ukrainian military is successfully countering this threat by destroying enemy objects and equipment.
