Russia says 38 Ukrainian drones intercepted in Crimea

Russia has claimed that it intercepted 38 Ukrainian drones in Crimea, escalating tensions between the two countries.

The Russian military said that the drones were attempting to conduct reconnaissance missions over Russian-controlled territory, and were intercepted and neutralized before they could pose a threat.

This latest incident comes amid heightened tensions between Russia and Ukraine, with both sides accusing each other of escalating aggression in the region.

The Ukrainian government has denied any involvement in the drone incidents, calling the Russian claims “provocative and baseless.”

It remains to be seen how this latest development will impact the already delicate situation in Crimea and the wider region.
