“Shaheed” attacks on Ukraine

As a reminder, last night, the Russian Federation did not launch Shahed-type kamikaze drones over the country for the first time in a long time. At the same time, other strikes by its army were reported.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said he did not know the reasons for the absence of “shaheeds” in Ukrainian skies. He suggested that this could have happened due to weather conditions, or due to Kyiv’s appeal to Washington with complaints about Moscow.
