Russia’s MoD says drones in Moscow were “terrorist attack” by Kyiv, confirms 8 UAVs involved
The Russian Defense Ministry commented on this morning's drone attack on Moscow, accusing Kyiv of terrorism. The Insider quotes the MoD’s statement in full:
This morning, the Kyiv regime launched a terrorist drone attack on targets in the city of Moscow.
The attack involved eight fixed-wing drones. All enemy UAVs were destroyed.
Three of them were suppressed by electronic warfare, lost control and deviated from their intended targets.
Another five drones were shot down by the Pantsir-S surface-to-air missile system in the Moscow region.
Mikhail Podolyak, an advisor to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, said on The Breakfast Show, a YouTube program hosted by journalists Alexander Plushchev and Tatiana Felgengauer:
Perhaps not all drones are ready to attack Ukraine and are coming back to their creators to ask, 'Why are you sending us to attack civilians?'
Podolyak also noted that Ukraine “enjoyed watching” and predicted an increase in the number of attacks, adding that Kyiv “of course has nothing to do with them.”
