Claim 2: “23 drones have been shot down since midnight on Sunday”
DISPUTED
The number '23 drones' appears in multiple sources, but they describe completely different events. One source (TASS/Sobyanin) claims 23 drones were shot down by Russia since Sunday. Conversely, other sources (UNN, Ukrainian Air Force) claim that Ukraine shot down 23 drones launched by Russia. The claim is disputed because the evidence shows a conflict in who was defending and who was attacking regarding the specific number 23.
