This was reported by the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The attack, consisting of 29 Shahed-136/131 UAVs, occurred in two waves from the areas of Primosk-Akhtarsk (Russia) and Cape Chauda (Crimea). Mobile firing groups of the Defence Forces, fighter aircraft, and anti-aircraft missile units of the Air Force were deployed to repel the assault.

Air defenses effectively shot down 21 attacking UAVs across Mykolaiv, Kherson, Dnipro, Cherkasy, Kirovohrad, and Khmelnytskyi regions. Some of the drones were directed towards the frontline areas of Kherson and Mykolaiv regions.
