Ukrainian drone strikes kill four across Russian regions

At least four people were killed in a major Ukrainian drone attack on several Russian regions on Sunday, including the capital city of Moscow. This assault is being characterized by local officials as the largest drone strike on Moscow in more than a year. The overnight operation targeted multiple areas across the country, representing a significant escalation in the scale of aerial strikes directed at the Russian capital.[1][2]

In the Moscow region, authorities confirmed that three people died during the strikes. Moscow regional Governor Andrei Vorobyov reported that one of the victims was a woman who was killed during the attack. The intensity of the offensive against the capital region was notably higher than other strikes recorded over the past twelve months, according to official reports.[1][2]

In addition to the fatalities in the capital, one person was killed in the Belgorod region on Sunday. Local authorities reported that the major drone attack affected multiple Russian regions simultaneously. The four deaths were confirmed by regional officials as they responded to the largest overnight offensive launched against the Moscow area in over a year.[1][2]
