Ukraine's Major Drone Strike Shakes Moscow
Ukraine launched its most significant drone attack on Moscow yet, forcing the closure of two major airports as drones were destroyed in key districts. No casualties reported, but the incident indicates escalating tensions. Air transport was temporarily restricted for safety, reflecting the ongoing conflict.
Ukraine executed a major drone offensive against Moscow, reportedly the largest assault to date on the Russian capital. The attack prompted the temporary shutdown of two main airports, according to Russian officials.
Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed that Russian forces neutralized the drones across several key districts including Ramenskoye and Kolomensky. Meanwhile, emergency services continued to monitor the affected sites.
As a precaution, Russia's federal air transport agency imposed temporary restrictions on airport operations in Domodedovo and Zhukovo, starting early Sunday morning. The incident highlights the escalating tensions in the region as Ukrainian forces broaden their reach.
