Russian military can’t handle repeated drone attacks - air force spokesman

"Russian soldiers still can't cope with those drones which somehow reach them," Ihnat said.

Ihnat said that the drones are hard to hit but the Ukrainian army has managed to acquire this ability, unlike the occupiers.

"If we take, for example, the well-known Shahed drones, which unfortunately come often, it's noteasy to shoot them down. They fly relatively slowly and such a target is challenging for air defense systems. However, the Ukrainian military and all defense forces have experience of intercepting them," Ihnat concluded.

An attack drone hit the IQ tower at the Moskva City complex in Moscow overnight on August 1 for the second time in two days. Several buildings were affected by the resulting explosion. The Russian Ministry of Digital Development is located in the tower.

The Russian Defence Ministry claimed that two more Ukrainian drones were downed by anti-aircraft systems elsewhere in Moscow Oblast, while another was suppressed by electronic warfare.
