This is the second major attack in a row by Russia. Previously, on March 21, the Russian army also launched another large-scale attack.

SF reported that about 90 Russian missiles and 60 suicide drones were used in this attack. Ukrainian air defense forces intercepted 35 missiles.

At around 02:00 (local time), Russian suicide drones began attacking targets in various parts of Ukraine. Two hours later, Russian missiles struck. The missiles were reportedly launched from Tu-95ms, Tu22-m3, Kinzhal hypersonic missiles launched from MiG-31s, and ground-based missile systems were also used.

In the morning, after the main phase of the operation, several targets in Ukraine continued to be attacked in a second wave of attacks.
