Syrskyi emphasized that the air defense system operates in extremely difficult conditions of constant missile and drone attacks by the enemy, protecting the country from a daily threat from the air.

He noted that the enemy uses 100 to 200 Shahed-type attack UAVs daily and periodically carries out massive missile and air strikes.

In favorable weather conditions, aviation, helicopters, and interceptor drones are actively involved. This allows destroying 70 percent, and sometimes even more, of all air attack means
