All Patriot air defense systems are in working order. The best proof of this is the destruction of enemy ‘Kinzhals’ on the approaches to Kyiv on June 16.

Yuriy Ihnat, the spokesman for the Air Force Command, said this on the air of the nationwide telethon ‘United News’, Ukrinform reports.

"All Patriots are in good working order and functioning. And the best proof of this is that on 16 June we destroyed the 'Kinzhals' on the outskirts of the capital, and no one else can do it now," Ihnat noted.

He added that the enemy will continue to spread information about the destruction of these launchers, as it really needs such a ‘victory’.
