In the same context, Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin stated that 237 drones had flown toward the Moscow region since Monday evening, pointing out that most of them were neutralized by air defense forces at long distances from the region.

Sobyanin added that air defense forces are continuing to counter drones heading toward the region, without providing additional details regarding damages or casualties.

Ukrainian armed forces daily target residential neighborhoods, vital civilian facilities, industrial enterprises, and energy infrastructure in Russian border regions and deep within the country using drones and missiles.

In response, Russian forces launch strikes exclusively against Ukrainian military installations and defense industry enterprises using precision-guided weapons from the air, sea, and land, alongside drones.
