Ukrainian air defenses shot down 20 of the 22 drones launched by Russia at targets in four of its regions early on July 26, the air force said in a message on Facebook. The attacks on the Kherson, Sumy, Zhytomyr, and Chernihiv regions came a day after Moscow struck installations in the Ukrainian port of Izmayil on the Danube near NATO member Romania's border, prompting the alliance to scramble F-18 jets to monitor the situation. Russia's Defense Ministry, meanwhile, said that its air defenses shot down six Ukrainian drones -- four over the Rostov region and two over the Kursk region.
