Ukraine targeted Moscow with approximately 400 drones overnight, causing injuries to two people and leaving several buildings ablaze, according to Russian officials.
The intensive drone assault came just one day after Russia executed one of its largest ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv since the full-scale conflict began.
Retaliation for Continuous Bombardments
Kyiv has recently ramped up its military strikes directly on Russian territory, framing these actions as retaliation for more than four years of continuous bombardments against Ukrainian lands.
The overnight drone operation followed a grueling five-hour bombardment by Russia against Kyiv, which involved massive ballistic missile deployments.
