Russia claims that Ukraine carried out a drone attack overnight targeting the capital, Moscow, for the second night in a row.
Four of the capital’s main airports were temporarily closed for several hours to ensure safety, but were later reopened, according to the Russian aviation authority, as reported by the BBC.
Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin stated on social media that at least 19 Ukrainian drones were destroyed before reaching the city “from different directions.”
He added that some debris fell on one of the main highways leading into the city, but there were no casualties.
Ukraine has not yet commented on the incident. However, the mayor of Kharkiv said that Russia also conducted overnight drone strikes on that city, as well as in the Kyiv region.
