Russia says Ukraine drone attack struck a police station, caused no casualties
Russia has reported another Ukrainian drone attack in a border region, striking a police station but causing no casualties.
"Ukrainian forces attacked the district of Trubchevsky at night," said Governor Alexander Bogomaz of Russia's western Bryansk region in a post on his official Telegram channel on Monday.
"A drone hit the police station in this district. There are no victims," the official added, noting that the windows and roof of the building were damaged.
The overnight drone strike in Bryansk came just a day after Russian authorities reported shooting down or suppressing with electronic warfare multiple Ukrainian drones that had separately targeted the country's capital of Moscow and the Crimea Peninsula.
Russia on Sunday said the drones that targeted Moscow slightly damaged two office buildings in the capital and briefly shut an international airport.
Images from the scene showed that several windows have been damaged at the corner of the buildings, with debris scattered on the ground below.
In a statement, the Russian defense ministry said Ukraine's "attempted terrorist attack" had been "thwarted". The defense ministry added there had been no injuries in the attack.
Moscow is about 500 kilometers from the border with Ukraine and has been targeted several times.
A drone attack on the Kremlin in May was described as an attempt on President Vladimir Putin’s life. Kiev denied carrying out the drone attack on the Kremlin.
Russian officials have repeatedly slammed Ukraine’s drone attacks on Moscow which have been largely repelled. Russia’s foreign ministry has blamed the US and its NATO allies for providing Kiev with arms for such attacks.
Russia has warned the West against arming Kiev’s “Nazi” regime with weapons, saying it would only add to the losses.
