From the evening of the 20th to the early morning of the 21st local time, the Russian air defense system intercepted and shot down 45 Ukrainian drones in many places, including 11 in Moscow, 23 in Bryansk Oblast, 6 in Belgorod Oblast, 3 in Kaluga Oblast, and 2 in Kursk Oblast.

Reuters and RIA Novosti quoted Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin as saying that this was the largest drone attack launched by Ukraine against Moscow since the war began. All incoming drones were repelled without causing any damage to ground buildings or casualties.

Yes, you read that right. After the war between Russia and Ukraine broke out, Moscow was attacked by drones more than once.

For example, the last attack took place on May 4, 2023, also in the dark and windy night. The target was still the political heart of Russia - the Kremlin.

Looking at the relevant video, although only two drones were dispatched that time and the scale was not as large as this year, they were already very close to the attack target - they flew directly over the Kremlin, next to the shining red star on the onion.
