At least seven civilians were killed in what appeared to be one of the biggest aerial barrages of the 22-month war.

Russia launched 122 missiles and 36 drones against Ukrainian targets, officials said Friday, killing at least 18 civilians across the country in what an air force official said was the biggest aerial barrage of the 22-month war.

The Ukrainian air force intercepted 87 of the missiles and 27 of the Shahed-type drones overnight, Ukraine’s military chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi said.

Air Force commander Mykola Oleshchuk wrote on his official Telegram channel: “The most massive aerial attack” since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022.

      How many would you need for 122 missiles and 36 drones?

        Jets can be used to shoot down missiles. They can also be used to win a war.

          They asked how many not to define the word jet.

      They did and training wasn’t enough, they kept colliding. These are multimillion dollar vehicles here and Sweden will need many of them in the next two decades.
