Ukraine's air defense systems intercepted 93 percent of Russian drones during a two-day Russian attack, President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday. Zelensky described the response as strong but stressed that ballistic missile defense remains a daily priority for the country. The interception rate reflects Ukraine's improved defensive capabilities against sustained Russian aerial bombardment. Ukrainian forces continue to face challenges defending against ballistic missiles, which pose greater difficulty than drone threats.
