Russian air defenses have neutralized more than 30 Ukrainian drones attacking Moscow overnight, Mayor Sergey Sobyanin has said.

In a series of posts between late Sunday and early Monday, the official said that the large-scale raid involved at least 37 drones, adding that emergency services were working at the sites where debris fell. He provided no data on casualties or damage on the ground.

According to the SHOT Telegram channel, explosions were heard across the Ramensky District, Podolsk, Klimovsk, Domodedovo, Kolomna and Troitsk — all suburban towns located to the south and southeast of Moscow. There were no reports of injuries or damage on the ground, the outlet said.

Russian aviation authorities imposed temporary flight restrictions at Domodedovo and Zhukovsky airports, both around 40 kilometers south and southeast of Moscow, respectively.

On Saturday, Moscow also came under a drone attack, although it only involved seven drones.

Ukraine has routinely launched long-range drone raids deep into Russia, targeting energy sites, critical infrastructure, and residential areas. Moscow has denounced such attacks as “acts of terrorism”.
