Russia cannot actively counter Ukrainian drones due to shortages - Syrskyi
Kyiv • UNN
Oleksandr Syrskyi reported a shortage of Russian missiles for combating drones. Strikes on the enemy's production facilities are reducing its air defense capabilities.
Russia is already experiencing a shortage of missiles to counter Ukrainian unmanned systems and other strike assets. This was stated on April 26 by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Oleksandr Syrskyi, during a meeting with the Chief of the Defence Staff of the Canadian Armed Forces, Jennie Carignan.
Separately, he emphasized that systematic strikes on Russian production facilities are reducing the enemy's air defense capabilities.
The Commander-in-Chief also informed the Canadian side about the situation on the line of contact, which, according to him, remains difficult.
Russian troops have intensified offensive operations along almost the entire front line. At the same time, the Defense Forces of Ukraine are relying on deliberate planning, innovative approaches, and the effective use of available strike assets, which allows them to inflict losses on the enemy that exceed their replenishment capabilities,
As a reminder
The SBU struck a number of important military targets in Crimea. Fighters attacked a base in Sevastopol and the Belbek airfield with drones. Three ships, a MiG-31 aircraft, air defense systems, and enemy infrastructure facilities were hit.
