KABUL (Pajhwok): Russian air defence systems have shot down three Ukrainian drones over Crimea, says the Defence Ministry in Moscow.
A statement from the ministry accused the Ukrainian government of trying on Sunday to attack facilities in Russia with unmanned aerial vehicles.
However, the attempted attacks were foiled, the ministry claimed, saying two Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles were shot down over the southwestern part of the Crimean Peninsula.
A third Ukrainian drone was downed over southwestern Crimea, according to the statement, cited by the state-run TASS news agency.
No damage was caused to the city’s infrastructure, Sevastopol Governor Mikhail Razvozhayev was quoted as saying.
