In 2026, air raid alerts became a regular occurrence both in Ukraine and in neighboring countries amid Russia’s military aggression. Their frequency is significant: in July, alerts in Ukrainian shopping malls lasted for a record 19.9% of their total operating time. Romania also repeatedly issued alerts due to the threat of Russian drones entering the country’s airspace, prompting Spanish F-18 fighter jets to scramble. Ukraine is introducing new warning formats, particularly in Zaporizhzhia and the Donetsk region, while learning to respond promptly to alerts in order to minimize risks to lives and infrastructure.
