Russian and Ukrainian aerial attacks decline as drone numbers drop

The intensity of Russian and Ukrainian aerial attacks has decreased, with the number of drones launched by both sides falling several-fold. On the night of Saturday, Russia attacked Ukraine with 96 strike drones, of which 81 were shot down or suppressed, according to the Ukrainian Air Force. Hits were recorded in eight locations, with drone debris falling in two others. No independent confirmation of these figures exists, but the data indicates a reduction compared to the first week of November, when Russia used over 100 or even 200 drones daily. The Russian strike again targeted Ukrainian energy infrastructure, causing a major emergency blackout in the Sumy region, according to Ukrenergo. In the city of Hlukhiv, a woman and her 9-year-old grandson were wounded, and a police officer also suffered injuries. Energy facilities were also attacked in Odesa and Chernihiv regions, where a man was injured. On the morning of November 14, reports emerged of burning warehouses in the Kyiv region after a drone strike, with no casualties reported. In Kyiv, drone debris fell in two locations without injuries. Russian Telegram channels reported a missile strike on a drone warehouse in Valuyki, Belgorod region, which also damaged residential buildings, with no casualties reported. In the settlement of Proletarsky in the same region, a drone strike on a private home killed four people.
