SIMFEROPOL (Sputnik) - Russian air defense systems have shot down all the missiles with which Kiev tried to attack the Saki airfield in Crimea, Oleg Kryuchkov, an adviser to the head of Crimea, stated on Thursday.
Earlier in the day, the Russian Defense Ministry said that air defenses had thwarted an overnight terrorist attack of the Ukrainian armed forces on Crimea by shooting down 19 unmanned aerial vehicles over the peninsula.
"Massive dissemination of fakes from... [Kiev] regarding the destruction of the Saki airfield. They prepared, selected photos, created different content... There is only one problem, our air defense shot down everything. The work of Kiev schoolchildren has disappeared," Kryuchkov wrote on Telegram.
