In Moscow, air defense systems have begun to be deployed on residential buildings
In Moscow, the Russian military has begun installing “Pantsir” anti-aircraft missile systems on the roofs of high-rise residential buildings. According to Russian media reports, such systems have been spotted on at least four high-rise buildings since late May.
Previously, air defense systems were primarily deployed on administrative buildings, particularly facilities belonging to the Russian Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now, they have begun installing them on residential buildings as well.
Experts note that such actions pose additional risks to the civilian population. These include falling debris from downed targets or air defense missiles, increased structural stress on buildings, and the transformation of residential buildings into potential military targets.
At the same time, journalists note that Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov had previously accused Ukraine of using the civilian population as “human shields” by deploying air defense systems near residential areas.

On the night of Saturday, June 21, drones attacked the port in Kerch in the temporarily occupied Crimea and the “Kavkaz” port in Russia’s Krasnodar Krai, resulting in fires at the facilities.
In the Dnipro region, particularly on the temporarily occupied left bank of the Kherson Oblast, Russian troops are increasingly facing supply and logistics challenges. Ukrainian defense forces have intensified pressure on key supply routes, further complicating the movement and delivery of resources to the occupying forces.
A Ukrainian drone attack on targets in the Moscow region on Thursday served as yet another example that, according to CNN, confirms the effectiveness of Ukraine’s strategy of overwhelming Russian air defense systems through the massive use of drones.
