In response to recent Ukrainian drone strikes that damaged residential areas in Moscow's suburbs, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has sharply criticised the attacks, asserting that they have no place in legitimate military operations. Peskov condemned the targeting of civilian infrastructure, describing it as a clear indication of the aggressive nature of the Ukrainian government. He emphasised that Russia must continue its military operations to protect against such attacks, while the Defense Ministry reported intercepting 144 drones during the overnight assault. The intensified drone strikes, which have increasingly targeted both residential and energy infrastructure, have heightened tensions and escalated the conflict.
