Moscow Hit by 600 Drones; Kyiv Fires from Russian Missile Attack
Six hundred drones were launched against the Moscow region in a sustained overnight assault that left three people wounded, the mayor of Russia’s capital reported on Sunday. The attack, part of Ukraine’s intensified use of long‑range drone strikes, targeted key infrastructure and civilian areas in the region, according to official statements.
The drone onslaught coincided with a Russian missile strike on Kyiv that ignited fires in at least two districts of the Ukrainian capital, Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed. The timing of the two attacks suggests a coordinated escalation, with Ukraine expanding its reach into Russian territory while Russia responds with counter‑attacks on Ukrainian targets.
The incidents underscore the growing intensity of the conflict, as both sides employ increasingly sophisticated aerial weaponry. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely, with emergency services responding to the damage and injuries caused by the drone and missile strikes.
