Kiev has suffered 14 bombings with Iranian-made cruise missiles and Shahed drones so far in May. Sunday's was the worst in intensity, but not in damage.
Anti-aircraft systems protecting the Ukrainian capital have reached a very high level of effectiveness. Of the 54 drones fired at urban targets across the country, the Ukrainian Air Force claimed to have shot down 52. The Ukrainian Government believes that the model to be followed should be the Israeli air defence system, for many analysts, the best in the world.
