The Russian side reserves the right to take “the toughest measures” in response to the drone attack on Moscow. This is stated in the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.
The department indicated that the attacks were carried out using eight aircraft-type drones. All of them were hit by Russian air defense and electronic warfare systems.
Thus, five drones were shot down by Pantsir-S anti-aircraft missile systems, three more drones were suppressed by electronic warfare. The latter lost control and deviated from their intended targets, falling on multi-storey residential buildings in the area of the Moskovsky state farm, on Leninsky Prospekt and Profsoyuznaya Street.
The Foreign Ministry clarified that there were no serious injuries from their fall.
On this fact, a criminal case was initiated under the article on a terrorist attack.
Meanwhile, adviser to the head of the office of the Ukrainian president, Mikhail Podolyak, said that Ukraine was not directly involved in the drone attack on Moscow. According to him, the incident was “a consequence of a drone attack on Ukrainian cities.”
