The figure is impressive.

Ukrainian UAV operators hit about 820,000 Russian targets with drones in 2025. This was stated by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky on January 26 in Kiev.

Video recording of his speech during the presentation of the initiative to assess the effectiveness of drone units is published on Facebook OP.

"Today, more than 80% of enemy targets are destroyed precisely by drones. The absolute majority are domestic drones. It is very pleasant that they are Ukrainian-made drones. Last year alone, 819,737 targets were hit by drones," Zelensky said.

The president noted that Ukraine "clearly records every defeat."

He also recalled the bonus system of electronic points, which "works to scale the results of the defense."

Zelensky emphasized that in December 2025, Ukrainian units destroyed 35,000 Russian occupiers.

"During the 10 years of the war in Afghanistan, the Soviet army lost half as much as the Russians lost during one month of this war," the president pointed out.
