Claim 1: “More than 210 Ukrainian drones were shot down over Russian regions, the Black and Azov Seas during the day, the Russian defense ministry said.”
DISPUTED
The evidence provided contains conflicting reports from the Russian Defense Ministry. One source mentions 'over 40' drones, another mentions '19 UAVs', and a third reports '456 Ukrainian drones'. None of the provided evidence sources specifically confirm the number '210' mentioned in the claim, and the available reports vary wildly in their figures.
