Overnight on July 9th (starting 8:00 PM July 8th), Russia launched 741 aerial attacks on Ukraine: • 728 Shahed-type attack UAVs and decoy drones from: Bryansk, Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Kursk, Oryol, Millerovo (Russia) • 7 Kh-101 / Iskander-K cruise missiles from: Engels (Saratov region) and Kursk region (Russia) • 6 Kh-47M2 “Kinzhal” aeroballistic missiles from: Lipetsk airspace (Russia)
❗️Main target direction: Volyn region, city of Lutsk.
Ukraine’s defense used fighter aircraft, SAM units, electronic warfare, drone systems, and mobile fire groups to repel the attacks.
🛡️ As of 8:30 AM, preliminary results from air defense: • 718 targets neutralized: • 303 shot down by firepower • 415 jammed/lost via EW systems • 296 Shaheds/drones destroyed by firepower, 415 suppressed via EW • All 7 cruise missiles shot down
Missile/drone hits were confirmed in 4 locations, and wreckage from interceptions fell in 14 more.

So almost every other night they’re setting a new record now?

Would be useful to see if the volume is going up because success rate is dropping.

It’s weird that certain sources claim that Russia is running out of steam but at the same time the attacks appear to intensify.

Russia uses drones like shahed and others to terrorize Ukrainian cities.

Build many automated anti drone platforms
Use the anti rocket rockets for the big ones and rockets
And build AI powered ones with Machine Guns and Long Range Shotguns to counter the drones
Think of one big umbrella targeted at rockets and many MANY smaller ones protecting the big ones and residential areas
Those platforms don’t need to cost much but couple them with the low key cellular phone drone targeting networks you built and you can counter the drones
AI powered small weapons platforms en masse that don’t need to be operated by humans but engage those drones as cheaply and effective as they and you can
If you mass produce them they shouldn’t cost more than one drone to manufacture
Pack them en masse around cities and rooftops and you should have an effective countermeasure.
A large number of strike UAVs were used. In parallel with the drone attack, strikes were carried out with aeroballistic missiles “Kinzhal”, and at the end of the attack cruise missiles appeared in the airspace.
The attack was aimed mainly at Lutsk, Zhytomyr and Ozerne.
During the night and morning of 09.07.2025, the defense forces destroyed:
❗/❗️ 7/7 Kh-101/”Iskander-K” cruise missiles.
❗ 0/6 Kh-47M2 “Kinzhal” aeroballistic missiles.
⚠️ 296/728 strike “Shahedi”/”Gerber” and imitation UAVs.
Locationally lost on the territory of Ukraine:
⚠️ 415 strike/imitative UAVs.

Wonder how they compare to Israel rn

This data does not look reliable. I don’t think Ukraine has capability of having elimination rate of 90+%

Remember news about “record high” 2 weeks ago? 2 weeks ago the record was 500, now it’s fkcing 700.

While the EU and US were dancing around “oh no, don’t use our weapons to strike into russia” russia was building factories, now those factories work very well. And world is finally waking up a bit but okay, now we are gonna spend way more money to at least defend from those air strikes. GJ, nice planning.
