Ukraine’s Biggest Drone Attack Yet: Hundreds Hit Moscow, 6 Dead

Russia reported that hundreds of Ukrainian drones struck Moscow and the southern Rostov region overnight, killing six people. In a separate wave of strikes, five more people were killed across Ukraine. The overnight assault on the Russian capital marks one of the largest drone attacks of the war. Russian officials confirmed fatalities in both the Moscow area and the Rostov region, which borders Ukraine. Ukrainian authorities reported that five civilians died in strikes on their own territory during the same period. The exact locations of those deaths were not specified. The scale of the drone barrage suggests a significant escalation in Ukraine’s long-range strike campaign. Moscow, which is roughly 500 kilometers from the Ukrainian border, has rarely seen attacks of this size. Both sides continue to trade long-range blows, with civilian casualties mounting on each side of the front line. The latest figures bring the combined death toll from these overnight attacks to at least 11.
