AI Summary:
Russia has downed 460 drones as well as 19 missiles launched overnight. The record launch came just ahead of the start of a prisoner swap agreed at recent talks between the pair. Two recent rounds of direct peace talks between Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Istanbul have yielded no breakthroughs beyond pledges to swap thousands of prisoners. Since the agreement was struck last week, the pair has accused one another of failing to meet their obligations. The first batch of POWs was repatriated on Monday afternoon. Alexander Gusev, head of Russia’s Voronezh region, said 25 drones had been shot down there overnight, damaging a gas pipeline and sparking a small fire. The general staff of the Ukrainian armed forces also claimed its special operations troops struck two Russian jets stationed at the Savasleyka airfield.
