Never having seen so many successfully intercepted rockets/UAV in one day, I assumed Ukraine had defended amazingly well. I guess the ratio of downed hasn’t changed just the pure number sent was ten fold. That is definitely not a thing of beauty.
151 fired, 92 intercepted. That is around 61% a lot lower than their usual interception rate, but that is understandable with such a large attackwave.
As @RubberDuck said, the ratio is lower than “usual”, and it is not beautiful at all.
