Russia says it intercepted more than 150 Ukrainian drones in 'massive' raid
Russia says it has stopped a "massive" Ukrainian air attack by downing at least 158 drones in 15 regions, including two over Russia's capital Moscow. The Russian defence ministry on Sunday said 46 of the drones were shot over the Kursk region, where Ukraine has sent its forces in recent weeks in the largest incursion on Russian soil since World War II. A further 34 drones were shot down over the Bryansk region, 28 over the Voronezh region, and 14 over the Belgorod region – all of which border Ukraine, the ministry said, adding that a total of 15 Russian regions were hit. Moscow's Mayor Sergei Sobyanin on Sunday said falling debris from one of the two drones shot down over the city caused a fire at an oil refinery. Also in Russia, Belgorod Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said nine people were wounded in Ukrainian aerial missile attacks in the Russian border region.
