Russians said that on the night of November 1 they actively repelled the drone attack. In particular, in the Kursk region they counted more than 60 targets. In general, throughout Russia they recorded more than 80 drones.

It is difficult to judge the “effectiveness” of the Russian air defense. However, if we are guided by the official reports of the Russian authorities, the night was restless.

Thus, the head of the Kursk region Smirnov stated that from 19:00 on October 31 to 00:30 on November 1, 61 Ukrainian aircraft-type drones were shot down in the skies over the region.

But the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that 83 Ukrainian drones were allegedly intercepted and destroyed by air defense systems on duty.

The Russians reported the downing of:

• 36 UAVs over the territory of the Kursk region region,
• 20 – over the territory of the Bryansk region,
• 12 – over the territory of the Republic of Crimea,
• 8 – over the territory of the Voronezh region,
• 4 – over the territory of the Oryol region,
• 3 – over the territory of the Belgorod region.

By the way, on the evening of Thursday, October 31, drones attacked fuel and energy plants in Bashkortostan, and on the night of November 1, a drone allegedly damaged a high-rise building in Bryansk
