Summary
Five people were killed and six injured after Ukrainian drones struck Russia’s Moscow region, setting a warehouse on fire and damaging a private house and a car, Governor Andrei Vorobyov said.
A separate drone strike damaged a Wildberries-run warehouse in Tver region, where no workers were hurt, making it the second warehouse facility hit within hours.
Russia’s defence ministry said air defences destroyed or brought down 320 Ukrainian drones overnight across 19 regions, though Moscow typically discloses limited damage details unless civilians or civilian sites are hit.
Governors said the broader overnight barrage killed six people and injured nine in total, with five deaths tied to the warehouse attack and one more reported in Belgorod near the Ukrainian border.
