Ukrainian officials highlighted their successes in downing over two-thirds of Russian drones, specifically the Shahed drones acquired from Iran. Meanwhile, fears heightened as Russia suggested the potential use of a 'dirty bomb.' The ongoing conflict has led to significant power outages across Ukraine, as citizens in places like Mykolaiv faced shortages and access to basic needs. U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi emphasized the need to combat dangerous drone technology, stressing its implications for civilian safety.
Both Russia and Iran deny that Iranian-built drones have been used, but the triangle-shaped Shahed-136s have rained down on civilians in Kyiv and elsewhere.
'First of all, we have to be able to counter the drones,' House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Monday. 'It is a dangerous technology, and it must be stopped.'
