Russian forces launched 117 Shahed, jet-powered Shahed, and Gerbera UAVs, along with Parodiya decoy drones, against Ukraine overnight on November 13, the Air Force reported.
63 of the drones were jet-powered.
The drones were launched from: Orel, Kursk, and Millerovo in Russia; and from Hvardiiske and Chauda in temporarily occupied Crimea.
Ukrainian air defenses shot down 80 of the enemy UAVs, 39 of which were jet-powered.
Drones made impact at 24 locations with debris from shot-down targets falling in ten locations.
The Air Force warned that the Russian attack was still underway, with multiple Russian drones still in Ukrainian airspace.
The Russian attack set fire to a medical facility in Kyiv.
The overnight barrage also struck Rivne, injuring six people, and hit Vinnytsia, where multiple homes and a kindergarten were damaged.
A Russian strike on Zaporizhzhia killed a 17-year-old, and rescuers pulled four people from the rubble.
The attack additionally hit the energy grid in Cherkasy Oblast, along with critical infrastructure in Shostka, Sumy Oblast.
The overnight Russian air raid was followed by a morning attack on Odesa, which killed two people and injured five others.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
