Ukrainian drones have struck the Moscow region for the third time in four days, escalating attacks within Russia’s borders. The latest incident follows previous strikes on June 16th and 18th, which caused damage to the Moscow Oil Refinery, the city’s largest. These attacks represent a sustained effort by Ukraine to target Russian infrastructure, raising concerns about the Kremlin’s air defenses and security. While details of the most recent damage remain limited, the frequency of these incursions is notable. Ukrainian officials have not directly claimed responsibility for the attacks, but the timing suggests a deliberate strategy. The strikes are occurring as Ukraine prepares for a counteroffensive and seeks to demonstrate its ability to reach targets deep inside Russia. This latest attack underscores the widening scope of the conflict and the increasing vulnerability of the Russian capital.
