Ukraine war: Moscow targeted by drones, Russian ministry says - BBC News

Ukraine has launched a drone attack on Moscow, the Russian defence ministry has said.

The attack has forced flights to be diverted from Vnukovo International Airport.

Five drones were reportedly used in Tuesday's attack, which also targeted locations in the wider region around the capital.

The defence ministry said all the drones were shot down and there were no casualties or damage.

Ukraine has not claimed responsibility for the alleged attack.

Actually, it's not attack but self-defense

[southbay]

Sounds like a special drone operation.

If the Russian Ministry is saying it, we know the opposite is true.

The attacks never seem to cause much damage

Strange, when Putler "attacks" himself, no one is killed and damage is minimal.

Please do NOT forget western helicopters that Ukraine very much needs just like F-16 and they should be pairs, in hand in hand!

Are we supposed to feel sorry for them? Victory to Ukraine.

They should send back some of those landmines back by airmail! 😅 Maybe some balloons would help! 🤗🎈🎈🎈

As an American who can thank the French for their hand in our independence, I wholeheartedly support Ukraine and their struggle to defend themselves. 
Слава Україні.

I also see you have a peace about the fuel pricing .
In May i had to drive to New Que in South west Wales, a very Lovely place i might add.
New Quebmust be the thurvist place a way from a major fuel depo, but i only paid £1.39 a litre.
And when i got back to York i had to pay £1.49. A ltr 10p difference, if supermarkets were charging the price they should be charging, it would go somway to taking the pressure of british households.

Russia asked for this last year in February.

[drtrramakrishnan]

Was it his own YP's fighters who did this?

[patsysmith]

Well done boys. Carry on the good work.

Ukrainians need to copy and produce russian "Lancet" drone, one of the most successful combat kamikaze drones. They might order parts in Chine but assemble in Ukraine or in Baltic states. Swarms of these drones might help for Ukraine to win war.
