Moscow experienced a significant drone attack overnight, resulting in smoke clouds and reports of an oily residue falling across the city. Russian authorities claim all drones were intercepted, but residents report no air raid sirens sounded during the incident. The attack targeted multiple locations within the city and surrounding areas, causing minor damage to buildings. Ukrainian officials have not claimed responsibility, though the timing coincides with heightened tensions following recent counteroffensive operations. The lack of public warning systems activated during the attack has drawn criticism from Moscow residents. This is one of the most substantial drone incursions into Russian territory since the start of the war in Ukraine, raising questions about air defense capabilities and preparedness. Investigations are underway to determine the origin and full extent of the damage.
