The number of drones launched by Russia has increased eightfold over the year.


According to War Infographics, this year the number of Russian drones has increased eightfold compared to last year. Since the beginning of 2025, Russia has launched 11,400 drones over Ukraine, significantly exceeding the figures for the same period last year when only 1,400 drones were launched.
Currently, 95% of these drones have been shot down or neutralized through electronic warfare.
It is worth noting that in Kyiv, enemy aircraft struck warehouses where food and medical supplies were stored, leading to smoke spreading across the capital. Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk also suffered.
According to reports, during the night of April 12, Russian invaders attacked Ukraine with 88 Shahed-type drones and imitators of other types from various directions.
