At night, Ukrainian defenders shot down 6 Iranian "mopeds" flying to attack cities in southern Ukraine.

This is reported by the Air Force of Ukraine.

"On the night of October 5, Russian occupation forces attacked Ukraine with Shahed-136 kamikaze drones. Six kamikaze drones were destroyed by anti-aircraft missile units of the Air Force in the south of the country," the message reads.

Earlier, we reported that kamikaze attack drones, for which the Ukrainians very quickly collected money, are already fighting at the front.

In a few days, Ukrainians deposited more than 60 million hryvnias "in the bank".

We will remind you that the Iranian Shahed 136 kamikaze drones, which the occupiers began to use, are quite serious weapons.

Ukrainian air defense forces will be forced to spend their not too large stockpile of missiles to deal with them.
