Most of the drones were shot down in regions that border Ukraine, with nine downed in Bryansk, three in Kursk and two in Belgorod, according to the ministry. Three more were destroyed in the interior region of Kaluga. Ukraine has claimed a series of strikes on Russian refineries and oil storage facilities in recent months. Moscow has also launched some of its biggest strikes on Ukraine&#8217;s energy facilities. The attacks have knocked out a significant chunk of production, triggering blackouts and energy rationing across Ukraine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dtl_share_blk clearfix\">\n<div id=\"st-2\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons text-left st-center  st-inline-share-buttons st-animated\">\n<div class=\"st-btn st-first\" data-network=\"facebook\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/facebook.svg\" alt=\"facebook sharing button\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-btn\" data-network=\"messenger\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/messenger.svg\" alt=\"messenger sharing button\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-btn\" data-network=\"twitter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/twitter.svg\" alt=\"twitter sharing button\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"st-btn st-last\" data-network=\"whatsapp\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform-cdn.sharethis.com\/img\/whatsapp.svg\" alt=\"whatsapp sharing button\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-lg-3\">\n<div class=\"border\">\n<div class=\"tab_bar_block_new\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russia shot down 17 Ukrainian drones overnight in several western regions, the defence ministry said on Sunday. &#8220;The air defence systems intercepted and destroyed seventeen Ukrainian UAVs,&#8221; the ministry said in a Telegram post.
