Ukraine's air force said on Friday on Russia attacked it with 72 drones overnight though it downed 33 of them while 34 others disappeared from radar without reaching their targets.

Ukraine says its air defences shot down 60 out of 93 Russian drones as Moscow escalates its aerial attacks. One person has been killed and four others were injured when Russian drones targeted the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, military and civilian officials said, as Russia launched barrages across the country.

Russian-based Fly Drones has been deploying an anti-drone laser system—which could be employed to automatically detect, track, identify, and engage the airborne platforms.

A Russian missile strike on the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia claimed at least 13 civilian lives and injured around 30 others.

Snow, sleet, fog, the lot; when the weather is at its worst is when Russian soldiers tend to go out on assault. That’s what the traditional wisdom dictates anyway: the harder it is for Ukrainian drones to watch and enter the battlefield,
