Ukraine is launching a new drone attack on Russia before the arrival of foreign leaders in Moscow
Ukraine launched Tuesday a massive attack of drones against Russia, targeting Moscow in particular before the arrival of dozens of foreign leaders, including Xi Jinping, for the celebrations of the 80th anniversary of victory over Nazi Germany.
After facing a wave of 105 drones during the night, Russia reported, on Tuesday evening, new Ukrainian attacks involving more than 70 devices, which have targeted a dozen regions of the country.
These attacks have forced Moscow airports to impose temporary restrictions on their operation on several occasions, some closing their tracks, according to the Russian Civil Aviation Agency Rossaviatsia. The activities of several other Russian airports had to be suspended, notably in several major cities in the Volga basin such as Nijni Novgorod, Samara, Saratov and Volgograd.
About twenty of these drones targeting Moscow and its region were intercepted by the Russian anti -aircraft defense, according to the authorities. Drone debris fell into the south of Moscow without making any victims, but in the British region, a border of Ukraine, a woman was killed. Telegram Russian accounts like Shot show a drone flying over the Ramensky district, in the Moscow region, and suggest detonations in Chtchiolkovo, still in the Moscow region.
