Over the past few days, Russia has massively attacked Ukrainian oblasts with various types of weapons.
On 21 August alone, Ukraine’s air defence assets and personnel managed to destroy 50 attack drones and one missile in 14 oblasts. In total, the Air Force reported that Russia attacked Ukraine with 72 aerial targets that day.
Background:
- Earlier, the United States recorded the redeployment of a small Russian force to the territory of Kursk Oblast.
- On 21 August, UK Defence Intelligence said that Russia was deploying units in Kursk Oblast whose personnel were not fighting for their intended purpose, so it could reduce Russia’s ability to regain the territories controlled by Ukrainian forces.
