Ukraine launched its most powerful strike on Moscow in a year , launching nearly 600 drones overnight in response to the strikes on Kyiv. The attack on the outskirts of the capital lasted from Saturday evening into Sunday morning, The Telegraph reports. The publication notes that, according to Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, three people were killed as a result of the downing of 586 drones over Russian territory. According to Russian state media, this was the largest strike on this region in the past year. Explosions were heard not only in the region but also in the center of the Russian capital. The article mentions that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he had instructed the military to prepare proposals regarding "possible formats for our response" to the Russian strike on Kyiv, which killed 24 people and injured around 50 on Thursday. Ukrainian drones have reportedly attacked Russia’s busiest airport, Sheremetyevo. "According to an analysis of the strikes published on local television channels, Kyiv likely targeted an oil refinery, a facility producing cruise missiles and other missile systems, a fueling station, and a technology park," the publication reported. The publication notes that Ukraine’s long-range strikes typically target infrastructure such as factories and oil refineries, logistics facilities, and air defense assets. The publication noted that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed these strikes in a post on Sunday. "Ukrainian long-range strikes have reached the Moscow region, and we are clearly telling the Russians: their country must end the war. The largest number of Russian air defense systems are concentrated in the Moscow region. But we are overcoming them," Zelenskyy wrote, adding a video clip showing Ukrainian drones flying over the region and smoke rising from the sites of the explosions. Ukrainian Unmanned Forces Commander Robert Brovdi posted an image of an unmanned aerial vehicle on Telegram with the inscription "Moscow Never Sleeps" on its wing. "The one-way pass to peaceful life in Patriki and the surrounding area has been cancelled," he wrote in the caption, referring to the elite Moscow district of Patriarch’s Ponds. The publication reported that, according to local officials, three people were killed in the attacks in the villages of Khimki and Pogorelki, located north of the capital. Drone debris also fell on the grounds of Sheremetyevo Airport, the country’s busiest aviation hub. In the village of Subbotino, southwest of Moscow, drone debris fell on a house, causing it to catch fire. Moscow Region Governor Andrei Vorobyov published a photograph showing the house completely engulfed in flames. Additionally, in Istra, a city 25 miles west of the capital, four people were injured by drones and homes were damaged. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said 12 workers were injured in the explosion at the Moscow Oil Refinery, although he noted that "production was not disrupted." According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, drones were also shot down in 14 other Russian regions, as well as in occupied Crimea. One person was killed in Belgorod, a border region frequently subject to drone strikes and artillery shelling. The publication reports that while rescuers were extracting bodies from the rubble, The Telegraph correspondent witnessed hundreds of people anxiously awaiting news about the fate of their friends, neighbors, classmates, and family members. The following day was declared a day of mourning in Kyiv, and people from all over the city came to the scene to lay flowers and stuffed animals – the latter in memory of the three dead children. The bloodshed was followed by several rounds of retaliatory strikes by Ukraine against Russia. On Saturday, Zelenskyy announced that his army had destroyed a rare amphibious aircraft deep behind front lines.
The publication noted that as concerns about Kyiv’s long-range strike capabilities intensify, Russian President Vladimir Putin has imposed new restrictions prohibiting any media outlet, organization, or individual from publishing information about the consequences of strikes on Russian territory without official permission. The new law, which is set to remain in effect indefinitely, will impose fines on anyone who publishes text, photos, or videos depicting the aftermath of the attacks. It should be noted that this follows a widespread wave of internet restrictions imposed by the Kremlin, including shutdowns, bandwidth restrictions on non-state social media and messaging apps, and attempts to ban VPNs. "Russian authorities generally do not publicize the scale of Ukrainian attacks, and many rely on Telegram and other social media channels to receive and distribute news and video footage," the publication noted.
