Claim 1: “64 drones have been shot down since midnight on Sunday”
DISPUTED
The claim states 64 drones were shot down since midnight on Sunday. However, the most relevant evidence from TASS explicitly states that according to Sobyanin, '23 drones have been shot down since midnight on Sunday.' This directly contradicts the number 64.
