Russia intensified its long-range missile and drone strikes on Ukraine in September, AFP analysis of data from Kyiv’s air force showed, attacks that came amid a spate of alleged Russian airspace violations into Europe and as peace talks froze. Russia fired some 5,638 long-range drones and 185 missiles in overnight attacks throughout the month -- up 36 percent compared with August. The data covers the air force’s initial estimates of how many incoming long-range drones and missiles it detected in overnight strikes. The air force said it shot down or intercepted 87 percent of the Russian drones and 68 percent of the missiles. Kyiv has also begun talking to NATO members about sharing their experience in downing Russian drones amid a spate of alleged airspace violations by Russia into NATO members.
