There is a risk of further Russian missile strikes in the near future — Air Force
Yuriy Ignat, Head of Communications for the Ukrainian Air Force, made this statement during an appearance on "News.LIVE".
According to him, during the latest attack, the enemy did not use sea-launched Kalibr or Iskander-K cruise missiles.
Instead, the Russians relied on strategic aviation and ballistic weapons such as the "Iskander-M".
Therefore, the danger of further launches remains, particularly from the Caspian Flotilla of the Russian Federation’s Black Sea Fleet.
“The likelihood of further strikes remains. Of course, there is currently no precise information as to whether they plan to attack again, but we must prepare for any scenario, because the enemy is not stopping such attacks. And right now, drones are attacking from various directions,” Ignat said.
