Ukrainian Drones Hit Moscow Region, One Person Killed

Ukrainian drones struck the Moscow region overnight on Sunday in what regional Governor Andrei Vorobyov described as one of the largest attacks the area has faced. An 83-year-old man was killed in the strike, and several other people were injured.

Multiple sites hit

Writing on Telegram, Vorobyov said the heaviest damage occurred in Podolsk, where a warehouse belonging to Wildberries, Russia's largest online retailer, was struck. Damage was also reported at other locations, including a warehouse in Domodedovo, a town near one of Moscow's main airports.

Russia's Defense Ministry said 822 Ukrainian drones were shot down across the country overnight. Reuters video from the scene showed a large plume of smoke rising over Wildberries' Koledino warehouse, located about 45 kilometers (28 miles) south of Moscow.

Part of a wider campaign

In recent weeks, Ukraine has repeatedly targeted Wildberries, accusing the company of handling military-related goods. The strikes form part of a broader effort by Kyiv to disrupt Russian economic infrastructure that it says helps sustain Moscow's war effort.
