Drones crashed into several buildings in Moscow at dawn today, May 30, 2023. This was reported by the mayor of the capital, Sergei Sobyanin. No serious injuries, but damage to two buildings was reported.
Emergency services told the RIA Novosti news agency that three residential buildings were hit: one on Leninsky Prospekt, one of the city’s main streets, one on Profsoyuznaya Street in the southwest of Moscow, and one on Atlasova Street in the suburb of New Moscow, with 24 floors. , south of the capital. The governor of the Moscow region, Andrei Vorobyov, urged the public to remain calm, announcing that at least 13 drones were shot down while flying at low altitude (in the video below).
Ukraine is looked at as the possible source of today’s attack, as two drones crashed into the Kremlin last May 3rd: Kiev had linked the action to anti-Putin Russian partisan forces operating within the borders of the Russian Federation.
It is certain that today’s drone bombing could escalate tensions that were already rapidly escalating after the attack by Russian militias based in Kiev on the Belgorod border area. A symbolic act, however, it exposed Moscow’s shortcomings in defense.
Today is a bomb attack, but it is not clear who is behind this attack. Ukraine has never attacked civilian targets before. And that could be Putin’s fake flag.
