As Russian troops march relentlessly, the scale of long-range drone strikes in Ukraine, particularly against Kyiv, marks a troubling escalation in the current conflict.
Over the past two months, there was only one night when Russia did not launch swarms of drones packed with explosives at targets far from the front, including near-nightly attacks aimed at Kyiv.
In October, the Ukrainian military tracked a record 2,023 unmanned aircraft against both civilian and military targets, with a significant majority shot down thanks to their electronic warfare systems.
Despite effective defensive measures that limited casualties in Kyiv, such as preventing mass injuries during airstrikes, the bombardments across Ukraine continue unabated.
