Ukraine's air defense is currently capable of knocking down from 50 to 70% of Russian missiles. This was reported by the head of the Kyiv City Military Administration Major General Mykola Zhirnov in an interview with Inform army. "Analysis of Russia's aircraft and rocket strikes shows that from 50 to 70% of hostile missiles is struck by air defense, both aviation and anti-aircraft missile units," Zhirnov said.

Video day he noted that today Ukraine cannot provide 100% efficiency of air defense actions due to insufficient number of intelligence, aviation and anti -aircraft missile systems. "Basically, they are Soviet systems that do not have as efficiency and reliability as NATO-partner availability facilities," Major General said. According to him, as long as the enemy has rocket and aviation weapons, there will be a threat of rocket and aviation strikes.
