One killed in largest drone attack on Moscow region, officials say
Local officials reported a "massive" drone attack on the Moscow region, ahead of crunch talks on ending the war between Ukrainian and US officials in Saudi Arabia.
At least one person has been killed and three injured in an overnight drone attack on Moscow and the surrounding region, local officials said.
The governor of the Moscow region, Andrei Vorobyov, said the casualties were in the towns of Vidnoye and Domodedovo, located just outside the capital. Seven apartments were also damaged.
In a post on social media, Vorobyov posted pictures reportedly showing one of the damaged apartments alongside burnt vehicles in a car park. He added that over a dozen — including children — had to be evacuated.
Moscow's mayor Sergei Sobyanin said over 70 drones were shot down as they flew towards the Russian capital.
The roof of a building in Moscow also sustained damage in what Sobyanin said was the largest Ukrainian drone attack on the city in the three years of war between Russia and Ukraine.
In total, the Russian military said air defences shot down at least 91 drones over the Moscow region. At least 337 Ukrainian drones over 10 Russian regions in total, with the majority shot down over Kursk.
Flights have been restricted in all four of Moscow's airports and two other airports in regions east of Moscow were closed. Traffic was halted through the Domodedovo railway station.
The governors of Ryazan, south-east of Moscow, and Belgorod on the border in Ukraine also said their regions came under attack, with Belgorod's regional governor saying several settlements lost power.
Ukrainian officials have not yet commented on the attack.
Overnight, Ukraine's air force posted on Telegram that it shot down an Iskander-M ballistic missile and at least 79 drones in various regions across Ukraine, including Kyiv.
It was not immediately clear if there were any injuries.
The attacks come as representatives from the US and Ukraine meet in Saudi Arabia for crunch talks focused on ending the war between Russia and Ukraine.
Two senior Ukrainian officials told AP on Monday that the Ukrainian delegation would propose a ceasefire covering the Black Sea and long-range missile strikes, as well as the release of Ukrainian prisoners held in Russia.
US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, who will be present at the talks said ahead of discussions that the US would be taking stock of Ukraine's proposals.
“I’m not going to set any conditions on what they have to or need to do. I think we want to listen to see how far they’re willing to go and then compare that to what the Russians want and see how far apart we truly are,” Rubio told reporters ahead of his arrival.
"It’s hard in the aftermath of something like that to even talk about concessions, but that’s the only way this is going to end and prevent more suffering,” Rubio said, implying that Kyiv would have to consider or make concessions on its long-held ambitions for peace.
