Russian air defense systems shot down 105 Ukrainian drones overnight on May 22, including 35 intercepted over Moscow Oblast, the Russian Defense Ministry claimed. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said that all the drones were flying toward the Russian capital.

Hundreds of Ukrainian kamikaze drones have flown towards Moscow in recent weeks. None appear to have even reached the Russian capital, yet the effect on the city — and the wider country — has been hugely significant.

The Russian Ministry of Defense confirms that during the night and this morning (May 22), there was an attack by Ukrainian drones on the Moscow region. The Russians claim they shot down 400 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles.
