JAKARTA - Russian air defenses out the attack of four drones flying towards Moscow. No injuries were reported in the capital or in previous attacks on oil complexes in one of Russia's southern regions.
"Emergency services are working at the crash site," Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said on Friday, March 14.
Sobyanin did not say the attack came from Ukraine. But Kyiv has launched a series of drone attacks on Russia since President Vladimir Putin sent tens of thousands of troops to Ukraine more than three years ago, most of them targeting energy and other infrastructure.
Veniamin Konndratiev, governor of the southern Russian Krasnodar region, previously said Ukraine's attack burned gasoline tanks at the Tuapse oil complex on the banks of the Black Sea.
A total of 121 firefighters struggled to extinguish the fire, Kondratiev said, without saying whether the location was hit by an unmanned plane or a missile.
Export-oriented Tuapse oil refinery, with a processing capacity of 240,000 barrels per day, produces nafta, fuel oil, vacuum gasoil, and diesel with high sulfur levels, mostly supplying them to China, Malaysia, Singapore, and Turkey.
Andrei Vorobyov, the broader governor of Moscow, said three unmanned aircraft bound for Moscow were shot down in his area.
The debris fell on construction sites and residential buildings under construction.
One of the drones hit the roof of a multilevel residential building west of Moscow, the RIA news agency reported, citing information from emergency services.
TASS news agency reported debris also fell in private homes on the outskirts of Moscow.
