Russia claimed on April 9 that it destroyed 158 Ukrainian drones in a major overnight attack, with 29 shot down over the Rostov region. The Russian defence ministry reported evacuations from 48 apartments in Aksay and temporary airport closures across southern Russia. Most drones were intercepted over Krasnodar (69) and North Ossetia–Alania (15). No injuries were reported. Ukraine did not comment, but Kyiv says such attacks target infrastructure in response to Russia’s bombings. US President Donald Trump has pushed for a ceasefire, with the US announcing agreements in March aiming to halt strikes on energy infrastructure in the ongoing war. (PC: NDTV)
