Moscow Mayor Says Ukrainian Drones Attacked Two Office Buildings

Two office buildings in Moscow were attacked by Ukrainian drones, causing the city’s airport to be temporarily shut as defense forces acted to stop the aerial devices.

“Two city office tower facades were insignificantly damaged,” Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin wrote in a Telegram post on Sunday. The city’s Vnukovo airport was reopened after the interruption, Tass reported, citing air traffic services.

Russian air defense shot down a drone over the Moscow region, the Defense Ministry said on Telegram. Two drones, which hit the office buildings, were downed using electronic jamming, according to the statement.

One person was injured during the attacks, Tass reported, citing emergency services.
