During the airstrikes on Kyiv, the Air Defense Forces managed to shoot down approximately 20 ballistic missiles.
Defense Express expert Ivan Kyrychevskyi shared this information on KYIV24.
During the attacks on Kyiv, it was recorded that around 20 missiles of ballistic types such as “Iskanders” and S-400s were successfully intercepted by the Air Defense Forces. There is a conspiracy theory that remains unrefuted, suggesting that even the “Kinjal” missile is a modified version of the ballistic “Iskander,” boosted by the speed of the MiG-31K. The latter often alarms the capital’s residents due to its constant unclear flights.
As reported by President Volodymyr Zelensky, during the overall large-scale invasion, Russia has already launched over 6.5 thousand missiles and more than 3.5 thousand strike drones, including Iranian “Shahed” drones, against Ukraine.
