Russian officials said Ukraine launched a large overnight drone attack on Moscow and the surrounding region, with 400 drones reported in the barrage. According to the initial account, two people were wounded and multiple buildings or facilities were damaged or set on fire.
The attack was described as one of the latest strikes aimed at Russian territory far from the battlefield. Officials said air defence units were deployed during the night as the drones approached Moscow and nearby areas.
Early reports from Russia said the assault left a limited number of injuries but caused visible damage, including fires at several sites. The full extent of the impact was not immediately clear from the first statements.
The reported strike underscores how drone warfare continues to shape the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, with both sides facing repeated aerial attacks. In this case, the details available so far come from Russian authorities in the immediate aftermath of the incident.
