Another 71 UAVs were lost, probably due to electronic warfare countermeasures. Another one flew towards Belarus.

"During the day (yesterday), on November 24, 2024, from 10.00 a.m. to 5.30 a.m., the enemy struck again with various types of drones, guided aerial bombs and X-59/69 guided air missiles. Since the enemy is constantly changing the tactics of using attack drones, the format of presenting information on the results of air defense operations may change. Previously, Shahed attacks were carried out only at night — in the dark. Now the enemy is using strike UAVs during the day as well," added the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
