Ukrainian Drone Strikes Luxury Moscow Tower Before Victory Day Parade

armed conflict defense & military

Ukrainian drones are regularly hitting targets deep inside Russia, reaching the Ural Mountains and communities where most people had previously seen the war as a distant problem.

In a rare strike near the city center, a drone hit a high-rise residential tower in an upscale Moscow district. The building is located just kilometers away from the Kremlin.

The attack occurred just days before the traditional World War II Victory Day parade. The breach of air defenses in the Russian capital highlights the city's vulnerability as Ukraine expands its long-range strikes.
