Russian air defence systems thwarted four nighttime Ukrainian drone attacks, Russia’s Ministry of Defence said on Tuesday, with the falling wreckage of one drone shattering an apartment building’s windows and damaging vehicles in Moscow’s western suburbs. There were no reports of injuries in the latest drone attacks that Russia blamed on Kyiv, as the war approaches its 18-month milestone.
Though the drone attacks on Russian soil have occurred almost daily in recent weeks, they have caused little damage. Even so, they have unnerved some Russians and are in line with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s pledge to take the war into the heart of Russia. Flights at several Moscow airports were temporarily suspended on Tuesday as a security precaution amid the attacks, authorities said.
