Overnight on November 30 (starting at 19:00 on November 29), Russia launched another massive attack on Ukraine, using two Iskander-M ballistic missiles and 122 attack UAVs — including Shahed, Geran-type drones, and others — the Ukrainian Air Force reported on Telegram.

The missiles were fired from the temporarily occupied territory of Crimea. The drones were launched from the Russian regions of Oryol, Kursk, Millerovo, and Primorsko-Akhtarsk, as well as from the settlement of Hvardiiske in occupied Crimea. Around 75 of the drones involved were Shaheds.

Ukraine’s air defense — including aircraft, anti-aircraft missile units, electronic warfare systems, drone units, and mobile fire groups — engaged the attack across multiple regions.

As of 09:00, according to preliminary data, Ukrainian defenses destroyed 104 enemy UAVs over the northern, southern, and eastern parts of the country.

Impacts from ballistic missiles and 18 attack drones were recorded at 13 locations, along with debris from downed UAVs falling at two additional sites.
