Zelensky Announces Another Successful Test Of Interceptor Against Jet-Powered Drones
“There was a briefing today from Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykhailo Drapatyi on a new milestone achieved by our manufacturers: another interceptor designed to counter Russian jet-powered drones has been successfully tested. A Shahed was successfully intercepted, but some aspects of the interceptor's guidance need to be refined. We are continuing the work - more time is still needed,” Zelensky said.
He noted that together with Defense Minister Yevhenii Khmara, he discussed“further military operations and our long-range capabilities.”
The President said that together with Khmara and Drapatyi, he had identified the next priority targets, the resources required for this purpose, and the necessary preparations.
“The results of our long-range strikes against Russia's oil sector, which underpins its war effort, are significant, and this is precisely what provides the necessary leverage for diplomacy,” the President explained.
Ukraine is ready to take its own de-escalatory steps, but its partners must ensure Russia's good faith in implementing its de-escalatory measures concerning our critical infrastructure - over the long term and reliably, Zelensky wrote.
As previously reported by Ukrinform, President Volodymyr Zelensky said that 67 companies are currently operating in Ukraine that are capable of shooting down jet-powered drones on a mass scale. According to him, three to five companies have already demonstrated results.
