New foreign secretary David Cameron meets Zelensky
Ukraine has targeted Moscow with a major drone assault overnight, after Russia unleashed its most significant aerial attack on Kyiv in months.
Russia claimed at least 20 drones were shot down as they made their way to Moscow. Whether any buildings in the Russian capital sustained damage remains unclear.
Flights were delayed or cancelled at Moscow’s main airports due to the attacks, reported the Kommersant newspaper.
“A mass drone attack was attempted overnight,” said mayor Sergei Sobyanin.
Ukrainian drones were shot down over four regions, including Moscow, said Russia’s defence ministry.
This comes after Vladimir Putin launched dozens of Russian kamikaze drones that were heard circling Kyiv early Saturday morning for roughly six hours before being intercepted by Ukrainian air defences.
Drone engines and explosions were heard overnight in Kyiv.
It was the most significant attack since May this year, in which residents were targeted at least 15 times in a month.
