Russia said its air defenses intercepted 419 Ukrainian drones early Tuesday, including 56 on approach to Moscow, in one of the latest large-scale cross-border drone attacks. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said on Telegram that Russian air defense units began intercepting drones heading toward the capital at around 4 a.m. local time. By the morning, he said 56 drones had been destroyed before reaching the city.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. Sobyanin did not report any casualties or damage in Moscow. The attacks prompted the temporary suspension of operations at Moscow’s Domodedovo and Zhukovsky airports. Russia’s Defense Ministry said a total of 419 Ukrainian drones were intercepted and destroyed overnight over 18 Russian regions and Russian-occupied Crimea. Residents reported hearing explosions in the cities of Tula, Novorossiysk, and Ryazan. The latest wave came just days after Russia claimed it had shot down 660 Ukrainian drones between June 25 and June 26, one of the highest daily totals reported since the start of the full-scale war. A Ukrainian drone strike also sparked a fire at an oil refinery in Moscow’s southeastern Kapotnya district on June 18. Kyiv rarely comments on long-range drone strikes inside Russia, but has repeatedly said such attacks target military, industrial and energy facilities supporting Moscow’s war effort in Ukraine. Russian claims about the number of drones intercepted and the extent of damage cannot be independently verified.
