The most massive attack by drones flying toward Moscow has been repelled, Sobyanin reported. Since yesterday, more than 1,600 drones have been repelled on all lines, including 450 on approach to Moscow, he added.

“Nevertheless, several drones reached the territory of the Moscow Oil Refinery, and one hit a residential building. There were no fatalities. The unprecedented attack was clearly planned with the aim of disrupting the elections. The enemy did not succeed”
