"Around three o'clock in the morning, the enemy took off about a dozen Tu-95MS strategic aircraft. Subsequently, Mig-31K Kinzhal missile carriers took off. These threats were the reason for the morning air alert. Fortunately, the launches of strategic aviation missiles were not confirmed," said KCMA chief Serhiy Popko.
Meanwhile, he said, there was an air raid alert in Kyiv for four and a half hours during the night due to an attack by Russian armed forces' strike drones.
