"Since early morning, the enemy has attempted a massive attack on the territory of our region. Thanks to air defense units of the Defense Ministry, mobile fire groups of the BARS-Bryansk brigade, and special units of the National Guard in the Bryansk Region, 120 enemy UAVs have already been destroyed," the governor said on Telegram.
