The Russian defense ministry said on Telegram that Kyiv had staged a terrorist attack using at least eight drones. Officials said that minor damage had been caused to several buildings.
Russia has said Moscow was targeted by a Ukrainian drone attack, with minor damage caused to buildings and several people hurt. The defence ministry blamed Kyiv for the “terrorist attack” but Ukraine denied the claim
The capital city’s mayor, Sergei Sobyanin, says no-one was seriously injured. The defense ministry claimed that all the drones were intercepted.
The accusations were swift and severe. Russia claimed that Ukraine was behind the attack, using the drone to launch a terrorist strike on Moscow. The evidence put forth included alleged connections between the perpetrators and Ukrainian nationalist groups, as well as the drone’s trajectory, purportedly pointing towards Ukraine.
In summary, the Moscow drone attack has been a highly charged and contentious incident, with Russia quickly pointing fingers at Ukraine. However, the evidence presented thus far is tenuous at best, and it’s vital that a thorough investigation is conducted to establish the truth. It’s crucial that international leaders emphasize restraint and cooperation between the two countries in the coming days and weeks.
