Vnukovo airport, one of three major airports serving the capital briefly shut down, but later resumed full operations.
The Russian military said its anti-aircraft units had thwarted a Ukrainian “terrorist attack” early on Tuesday, August 1, and downed drones targeting Moscow, but one drone, sent out of control by its units, struck the same high-rise tower hit earlier in the week.
“On the night of August 1st, an attempted terrorist attack by the Kyiv regime with lethal drones on targets in Moscow and Moscow region was thwarted,” the Defense Ministry said in a statement on the Telegram messaging app.“Yet another was hit by radio-electronic equipment and, having run out of control, crashed on the territory of the complex of non-residential buildings at Moskva Citi,” the ministry said, referring to a business center in the capital.
“One flew into the same tower at the Moskva Citi complex hit previously. The facade has been damaged on the 21st floor. Glazing was destroyed over 150 square meters.”Moskva Citi was hit by a drone attacks last Sunday – one of several such incidents which have caused limited damage but generated widespread unease.
