These air defense systems are vital for protecting populated areas and infrastructure from repeated aerial bombardments.
Multiple regions came under fire during the attacks, including:
- Pavlohrad
- Kherson

In Pavlohrad, three people were killed and dozens more wounded. Russia targeted Ukraine with one Iskander-M ballistic missile, five Kh-59/69 guided air-launched missiles, and 168 unmanned aerial vehicles.
