The air defense forces are now shooting down more and more missiles that the Russian invaders are launching at peaceful towns and villages.

Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar told about this during a briefing..

The Deputy Minister of Defense stressed that a high threat of missile strikes continues to persist in Ukraine, but now air defense is increasingly shooting them down and saving the lives of civilian Ukrainians.

" If until February 24 it was believed that Ukrainian air defense almost did not exist, now we state that the enemy has no advantages in the air. It is thanks to the work of air defense. And these are hundreds of thousands of saved lives,"
