Drones attack moscow and leningrad oblast: airports impose flight restrictions

On the night of April 3, drones attacked moscow and the leningrad oblast, some of which, according to authorities, were shot down

The moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin and the leningrad oblast governor Alexander Drozdenko have reported this.

"The Defense Ministry's air defense forces shot down a drone flying towards Moscow. Emergency services are working at the crash site," Sobyanin said.

Later he added that another drone was shot down.

As a result of the air threat, a number of russian airports temporarily restricted the arrival and departure of flights. In particular, we are talking about Vnukovo, Pulkovo and Tunosha airports.

According to Drozdenko, seven drones were shot down in the leningrad oblast. He also reported two victims of the attack.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, one in four oil or oil product storage tanks in the port of Ust-Luga was damaged after the attack by Ukrainian UAVs. And in the neighboring port of Primorsk, almost half of the tanks are out of order.
