Ukraine launches major drone attack on Moscow and western Russia

In one of its most extensive drone attacks to date, Ukraine struck Moscow and several other regions of western Russia on Tuesday, causing significant damage and casualties.
Russian officials reported that at least 20 drones were destroyed over the Moscow region, while 124 more were intercepted in eight other regions. The attacks forced the closure of major airports in the capital and caused damage to residential buildings.
A 46-year-old woman was killed, and three people were injured in a drone attack on a high-rise apartment building in the Ramenskoye district of Moscow. Dozens of flats were damaged, and residents were evacuated to temporary accommodation centers.
Social media videos captured the destruction caused by the attacks, showing flames bursting out of windows and damaged buildings.
The Russian defense ministry reported that over 70 drones were downed over the Bryansk region, and tens more were intercepted in other regions. While there were no reports of damage or casualties in those areas, the attacks highlight Ukraine's increasing efforts to take the war to Russian territory.
The drone attacks on Moscow and western Russia mark a significant escalation in the conflict, as Ukraine seeks to retaliate for Russia's ongoing invasion of eastern Ukraine. (ILKHA)
