Russian air defenses shot down more than 100 Ukrainian drones Sunday over Russia’s western regions, Moscow officials said.

The Russian Defense Ministry said 110 drones were destroyed in the overnight barrage against seven Russian regions.

Many targeted Russia’s border region of Kursk, where 43 drones were reportedly shot down.

Social media footage appeared to show air defenses at work over the city of Dzerzhinsk in the Nizhny Novgorod region, near an explosives factory.

Such large-scale aerial attacks are still relatively rare over Russia 2½ years after Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

A similar attack at the end of September saw Russia’s Ministry of Defense report the destruction of 125 drones across seven regions.

Meanwhile, 17 people were injured in Ukraine’s Kryvyi Rih after the city was hit with two Russian ballistic missiles, officials said Sunday.

The attack damaged homes and businesses late Saturday evening, said local administration head Oleksandr Vilkul.

The Ukrainian Air Force said that Russia launched 49 drones and two Iskander-M ballistic missiles in total overnight.

It said 31 of the drones were shot down over 12 regions, including the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, while another 13 disappeared from radar — suggesting electronic defenses knocked them out.
