Ukraine launched its largest drone attack on the Russian capital city of Moscow since the war began in 2022, injuring one person and forcing three major airports to divert flights, as Russia fired at Ukraine's southern region of Odesa.

In an escalation of the ongoing conflict, Ukraine carried out its largest drone strike on Moscow, launching at least 34 drones at the Russian capital.

Ukraine launched at least 17 drones targeting Moscow early on Sunday, forcing the temporarily closure of two of the capital's airports, Russian officials said. Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said the 12 drones were destroyed in the Ramenskoye and Kolomensky districts of the Moscow region,
