"All emergency services of the city are at the scene of incidents," Sobyanin said on his Telegram messaging channel. It was reported on several of Russia's Telegram channels that four to 10 drones were shot down around the outskirts of Moscow and in its immediate region. Some residents were being evacuated, according to Sobyanin.
It was not immediately clear who was launched the drone attack, but the Kremlin said was a "response" by Kyiv to a recent Russian hit in Ukraine.
"It is completely clear that we are talking about response acts by the Kyiv regime to very effective strikes on a command centre," said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, without expanding on where the attack in Kyiv took place. This was the second attack on Moscow reported this month. Russian authorities said two drones targeted the Kremlin earlier this month.
