According to the ministry, 11 drones were shot down over the Moscow region and another three over the neighboring Kaluga region.
An additional 23 drones were downed over the Bryansk region, which borders Ukraine, while six were “destroyed” over Belgorod and two over Kursk, both also bordering Ukraine.
Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin described the incident as “one of the largest attempts to attack Moscow with drones ever,” but confirmed there were no casualties or damage.
