According to Ukrinform, the Ukrainian Air Force said this in a post on Telegram.

The enemy “used seven Shahed-136/131 kamikaze drones from the eastern coast of the Sea of Azov and six Kalibr sea-based cruise missiles from a Russian frigate in the Black Sea.” “The forces and means of the Ukrainian Air Force destroyed five Kalibr cruise missiles and five Shahed-136/131 attack drones,” the report said.

The aggressors also launched a massive attack using S-300 anti-aircraft missiles fired from near Belgorod (Russia) and Tokmak (captured territory of the Zaporizhzhia region).
