In particular, about 90% of Shahed, Gerbera, and Italmas attack drones were destroyed, as well as 90% of cruise missiles, including Caliber, Iskander-K, and Kh-101.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the interception efficiency of ballistic missiles was 40%. This includes, in particular, missiles of the Iskander, Kinzhal, 48N6DM types and others.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Defense emphasized that ballistic missiles remain the biggest challenge for Ukrainian air defense. To intercept them, a sufficient number of PAC-3 missiles for Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems is needed.<\/p>\n

The department also noted that Ukraine, together with international partners, continues to work on strengthening air defense and called on allies to transfer interceptor missiles to protect critical infrastructure.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a series of talks during the NATO summit, dedicated, in particular, to strengthening the Ukrainian air defense system<\/a> .<\/p>\n
