Zelensky needles Putin with largest drone attack aimed at Moscow
Ukraine has launched the largest drone attack on Moscow since Vladimir Putin’s invasion – its latest attempt to bring the war to Russia as it continues an audacious cross-border incursion in Kursk.
For months, Ukraine has targeted Russian refineries and airfields with drones but assaults on the capital – some 300 miles from the Ukrainian border – have been rarer.
One Russian dissident told The Independent that Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky was seeking to land a “serious psychological blow to Russians”.
Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin accused Ukraine of carrying out “one of the largest attempts to attack Moscow using drones ever” in Wednesday morning’s move.
