And because of the threat of such shelling, the alarm signal is also switched on if there is information about the shelling of hail, tornadoes or hurricanes.

"People also perceive this for rocket shelling, although it is a firing with jet artillery, against which, unfortunately, air defense is powerless," the air force spokesman said. He also noted that anti-aircraft missile complexes also cannot knock down such goals because the anti-aircraft missile is designed to beat other air purposes. Ignati added that it is necessary to take a decisive one to smash the enemy where he causes these blows.
