Russia's air defence units successfully intercepted and destroyed a Ukrainian drone that was heading towards Moscow, the city's mayor Sergei Sobyanin confirmed on Wednesday.
The announcement was made via his Telegram messaging app, though he did not provide further details on the specific location of the interception or the timing of the incident.
This marks the latest in a series of drone-related tensions between Ukraine and Russia, with both sides continuing to engage in aerial strikes and countermeasures amidst the ongoing conflict. The destruction of the drone highlights the heightened security measures Russia has taken to defend its capital against potential attacks.
While Moscow has experienced previous drone strikes, Sobyanin’s statement underscored the effectiveness of Russia’s air defence systems in protecting key targets. No casualties or significant damage were reported from the incident. The situation remains under investigation as part of ongoing security efforts.
