KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Scores of drones were shot down over Ukraine Saturday as the country continues to face increased long-range bombardment from invading Russian forces. The Ukrainian Air Force said that 67 drones were launched over the country overnight, with air defenses active in 11 regions across the country, including in the capital, Kyiv. Debris from one drone was photographed on the street outside Ukraine’s parliament, the Verkhovna Rada. The bombardment follows a week of increased long-range attacks across Ukraine, including a missile strike on the city of Poltava Tuesday that killed 55 people, and an attack on Lviv Wednesday that killed seven.
