Ukraine launched a large-scale drone attack on Moscow on Sunday, with reports indicating that over 1,000 drones were fired at Russia, including hundreds targeting the Russian capital. According to Moscow's mayor, this was the largest drone attack on the city so far, with damage reported to a Moscow oil refinery and a residential building. At least two people were confirmed killed in the attack, though some sources, including France24, reported three fatalities. The attack occurred on the final day of Russia's parliamentary elections for the State Duma, a tightly controlled process that included voting in Ukrainian regions occupied by Russia. Russia's ruling United Russia party was projected to win the election, according to exit polls. In response, Moscow has vowed to 'intensify' its strikes on Kyiv. Meanwhile, Russian forces reportedly carried out strikes in Ukraine's Kyiv region, killing at least four people. The election, which took place amid ongoing military conflict, was described by Russian officials as a test of public support for the war in Ukraine.
