Russia launched 40 drones overnight in a massive attack on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure but over half of them were downed, officials said. “Last night there were about 40 ‘Shaheds’. More than half of them were shot down,” President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in a post on social media. Russia has used hundreds of Iranian-made self-detonating Shahed drones to attack targets across Ukraine since the start of the conflict.
