Kyiv destroys 40 out of 45 drones launched by Russia

KYIV, Ukraine, Feb 11, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Ukraine said it destroyed most of the 
45 attack drones launched by Russia overnight, with little damage reported on 
Sunday morning.

The announcement comes a day after authorities announced seven killed in a 
Russian attack that set a petrol station ablaze in Ukraine's second biggest 
city, Kharkiv.

"Overnight the occupiers launched 45 attack drones... As a result of combat 
work, 40 enemy Shahed (UAV) were destroyed," the Ukrainian air force said on 
Telegram.

Falling debris lightly wounded a 39-year-old man in the southern region of 
Dnipro, governor Sergiy Lysak said.

Authorities from the capital Kyiv and the central Cherkasy region said there 
was preliminary no damage.

But aerial guided bombs targeted the village of Vodyane, in the Kharkiv 
region, killing a 56-year-old woman, governor Synegubov said.

The day before, his region had seen seven killed after a Russian drone attack 
hit a petrol station, spilling burning fuel down the neighbouring street.
