Russia said Friday it had destroyed a Ukrainian drone over the western outskirts of Moscow, the latest in a growing number of aerial attacks on the capital.
“This afternoon, an attempt by the Kyiv regime to carry out a terrorist attack using an unmanned aerial vehicle on a facility in Moscow was thwarted,” Russia’s Defense Ministry said, adding there was no damage or casualties as a result of the incident.
Friday’s attack was the latest in a series of Ukrainian drones to target Moscow in the past week.
“The drone was electronically disabled and crashed in a forest in the west of Moscow,” the Defense Ministry said.
On Thursday, Russia said it downed two drones headed for Moscow, a day after two others were destroyed on approach.
