Moscow reported one of the largest drone attacks in recent years

The drone attack on Moscow on the night of September 18 was one of the largest in recent years, according to officials in the Russian capital.

According to Moscow officials, this was one of the largest drone attacks on the city during this period.

How many drones were flying toward Moscow

According to Sobyanin, between 8:00 p.m. on September 17 and 7:00 a.m. on September 18, more than 350 drones were flying toward the Moscow region.

Most of the targets were reportedly destroyed while still far from the city. Another 64 drones, according to Sobyanin, were shot down as they approached Moscow.

There is currently no official data on possible damage caused by “falling debris” from the downed drones.

This is being reported by Russian propaganda media.

As a reminder, Russia was attacked by 629 drones overnight, more than 350 of which were headed for Moscow.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced the results of Ukraine’s long-range strikes aimed at weakening Russia’s capacity to wage war against Ukraine. Specifically, Ukrainian strikes hit targets in Dagestan and Udmurtia.

The Brave1 platform has developed an air defense system that is already destroying Russian “Banderole” drone missiles. Importantly, it is significantly cheaper than the targets it destroys.
