Ukraine’s air force on Monday reported that it shot down two Russian fighter jets during the night along with two cruise missiles and 28 Shahed-type drones.
The report said the attacks were aimed at southern and central regions of Ukraine, but that no casualties were immediately known.
It said that 31 drones were launched in all, but details of what the three that weren’t intercepted may have struck weren’t given.
A summary from the Ukrainian presidential office said that one civilian was killed and at least four wounded in Russian attacks over the previous 24 hours.
The death occurred in the town of Chornobaivka in the Kherson region, which is partly under Russian control and experiences daily fighting.
Ukraine observed Christmas on Monday, the first time the country has officially marked the holiday on Dec. 25 rather than the Jan. 7 date followed by some Orthodox countries, including Russia.
President Volodymyr Zelensky signed legislation in July to move the public holiday’s date. --->READ MORE HERE
