Border guards showed the wreckage of an enemy drone that was destroyed over the Black Sea last night.

As the State Border Guard Service reports, the Russians attacked the south of Ukraine simultaneously with several types of missiles and Shahed-136/131 drones on the night of July 19.

"The border guards shot down one of the deadly drones moving towards the coast over the sea. Hearing its characteristic sound and calculating the direction of movement, the fighters opened fire from small arms," the report reads.

The enemy drone fell into the sea. Its wreckage was washed ashore at dawn.

As reported, the Ukrainian troops destroyed 37 enemy aerial targets last night: 13 Kalibr cruise missiles; one Kh-59 guided missile; 23 Shahed-136/131 combat UAVs.
