Russia fires 136 drones at Ukraine ahead of Trump-NATO head meeting

Russia fired 136 drones at Ukraine, Kyiv’s air force said Monday, ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump’s meeting with NATO head Mark Rutte, where the two are expected to announce a new weapons deal for their besieged European ally.

The overnight attack began at 6:39 p.m. Sunday, and consisted of four surface-to-air missiles launched from Russia’s Kursk region and the drones from several areas of Russia.

The drones were reportedly Iran-made and -supplied Shahed unmanned aerial vehicle systems.

Sixty-one of the drones were shot down and another 47 were either lost from radar or suppressed by electronic warfare, Ukraine’s air force said, adding that 28 hit targets in 10 locations.

“The air attack was repelled by aviation, anti-aircraft missile forces, electronic warfare units and drone systems, and mobile fire groups of the Ukrainian Defense Forces,” it said in a statement on Telegram.
