Ukraine Accused of Orchestrating Drone Attack on Moscow
The Russian Defence Ministry accused Ukraine of orchestrating a drone attack on Moscow, involving multiple unmanned aerial vehicles targeting the Moscow region. One drone struck the IQ-Quarter skyscraper, which houses government agencies, about 5.5 km from the Kremlin. No injuries were reported, but the building sustained damage. Russian air defence destroyed two drones and jammed a third. The attack followed Ukrainian President Zelenskiy's statement suggesting the conflict could extend beyond Ukraine's borders. This marks at least the fifth drone incursion into Moscow since May. In response, Russia targeted Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, with drone strikes that injured one person and destroyed two floors of a college dormitory. The conflict began with Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022.
