Mass Ukraine drone barrage kills 4 in Russia
A huge wave of almost 600 Ukrainian drones attacked Russia overnight, killing three people in the Moscow region and one in the Belgorod region, authorities said on Sunday.
Air defences shot down 556 drones overnight across the country, Russia's defence ministry said, with another 30 drones neutralised after dawn in one of the largest Ukrainian barrages of the ongoing conflict so far.
These interceptions — far above the few dozen more often reported — took place across 14 Russian regions, as well as the Crimean peninsula annexed from Ukraine and the Black and Azov seas, the ministry added, with the region around the capital among the worst-hit.
"A woman was killed as a result of a UAV hitting a private house. One more person is trapped under rubble," the Moscow region's Governor Andrey Vorobyov posted on Telegram, adding that the early morning attack also claimed the lives of two men.
