MOSCOW (AA) – Russia claimed on Sunday that it had foiled a Ukrainian attack on the capital Moscow and nearby regions using aircraft-type uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs).
"At around 4 a.m. Moscow time (0100GMT), the Kyiv regime's attempt to carry out a terrorist attack on facilities in Moscow and the Moscow region with aircraft-type UAVs was foiled," the Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement.

The UAV was intercepted by radio electronic warfare vehicles, and it then lost control and fell into an empty area, causing no casualties or damage, the ministry said.
