President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that Ukraine is accelerating the development and production of interceptor drones to defend against the growing number of Iranian-made Shahed drones used by Russia in recent attacks.
Ukrainian officials highlighted the urgency of this effort, especially after Russia launched over 400 drones in a single night and carried out a combined strike on Kyiv this week that killed 28 people.
Zelenskyy said domestic companies are already delivering results, with interceptor drone production steadily increasing. Air Force spokesperson Yuri Ihnat stressed the need for cost-effective drone defence, noting that relying solely on anti-aircraft missiles and aviation is unsustainable.
Drone production in Ukraine has surged since the Russian invasion began in February 2022. Last year, Zelenskyy told international defence firms that Ukraine aimed to produce 4 million drones annually. Ukrainian drones have also been used in offensive operations, including strikes on Russian military and industrial sites, such as attacks on strategic bombers last month.
