Ukraine pummels Moscow with drones on last day of Russian election

Two people were killed in the Moscow region and the Russian capital’s oil refinery was also struck

Ukraine launched ⁠what Moscow’s mayor called the biggest ever drone attack on the Russian capital on Sunday, in what he said was an unsuccessful attempt to disrupt the final day of a parliamentary election that President Vladimir Putin has cast as a test of support for Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Two people were killed in the surrounding Moscow region and the capital’s oil refinery, which has been hit before, was struck, local authorities said. Witnesses heard blasts in Moscow and saw plumes of smoke billowing from the refinery site. ‌It was not clear what damage the facility had sustained. There was no immediate comment from Ukraine.
