Ukraine had carried out its biggest drone strike on Moscow since Vladimir Putin's full-scale invasion in 2022, Russian media said yesterday, as the Kremlin launched its own record air attack over Ukraine.

Moscow Drone strike by Kyiv is heaviest yet

Three airports in the Russian capital were temporarily closed and flights were diverted as a result of the attacks over the weekend. At least one person was injured.

Russia said its air defences had shot down 70 drones, nearly half of them in the skies above Moscow and the rest in western Russia.

The general staff of Ukraine's armed forces said it successfully targeted an ammunition dump near the Russian city of Bryansk.

Video showed explosions coming from warehouses on the military site. Fires could be seen burning in the night sky. Other footage posted on Russian Telegram channels recorded drones buzzing above urban areas including suburbs of multistorey buildings and a lorry park.

Ukrainian commentators said the strike on Moscow was in response to a massive Russian drone barrage directed at Kyiv on Thursday, soon after Donald Trump was elected as US president.
