Today, during a night attack, a Russian Shahed attack UAV was spotted flying in close proximity to the Khmelnytsky nuclear power plant. The Shahed was later shot down by Ukrainian air defense forces. This is not the first time that Russia has deliberately planned the routes of missiles and attack drones so that they would pass over Ukraine's nuclear facilities. This is part of Russia's terrorist tactics
According to the RMA chairman, this is why President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy and all representatives of our country are so actively appealing to partners to strengthen Ukraine's air defense and increase pressure on the aggressor. "And it is important that this is understood at all levels - strengthening Ukraine's air shield protects everyone who values life," he emphasized.
"I am grateful to the air defense forces for their effective work and elimination of the threat to critical infrastructure," Tyurin said.
