On the night of July 26 the International Space Station frightened residents of several regions of Ukraine.

What we know

Residents of Lviv and Rivne regions began to report en masse in social networks about the appearance of drones during the air alert, which was declared throughout Ukraine. At the same time Telegram-channels wrote that Russia had fired several missiles at Ukraine.

Naturally, the appearance of unidentified aircraft in the night sky added to the suspense. Especially due the fact that on July 25, two Russian drones intruded into Ukrainian airspace from the territory of Belarus. As it turned out, the residents of the western regions of Ukraine in this case were alarmed in vain. It turned out that Ukrainians were frightened by the International Space Station, which was flying over our country at the time. The ISS can be seen for another four days.
