Russian authorities accused Ukraine of launching a drone attack on Moscow early Monday, with one of the drones falling near the Defence Ministry`s main headquarters. The Russian military retaliated by launching new strikes on port infrastructure in southern Ukraine.
Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin reported that the drone strikes hit two non-residential buildings, causing no casualties. The Russian Defence Ministry claimed to have jammed both attacking drones, causing them to crash. One drone fell on the Komsomolsky highway near Moscow`s center, close to the main Defence Ministry building, while another hit an office building in southern Moscow, causing severe damage.
