Moscow hit by biggest drone attack since 2022; residents vent fear online

The Russian capital faced its largest aerial assault since 2022 on Thursday morning. Ukrainian drones struck multiple targets across Moscow, challenging President Vladimir Putin’s repeated assurances of security and victory. Although the Kremlin maintains strict internet censorship, some Muscovites have begun quietly expressing their fears and frustrations. They are using encrypted messaging apps to share concerns about the escalating attacks, a rare sign of public unease in a city often shielded from the war’s direct impact.
