Russia says it downs 91 Ukrainian drones overnight
Russia’s air defence units destroyed 91 Ukrainian drones overnight, with 40 of them downed over the Kursk region that borders Ukraine, Russia’s defence ministry said on Tuesday.
Two of the drones were downed over the Moscow region, while the rest were destroyed over Russia’s western and southern regions as well as the Crimean Peninsula, the ministry said in a statement on the Telegram messaging app.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the weekend that Moscow’s troops had ejected Ukrainian forces from the Kursk region more than eight months after Kyiv staged a mass cross-border incursion.

The ministry does not report damage inflicted by drone attacks and it only reports the number of drones destroyed not how many were launched.
